A JS library to model and draw graphs https://github.com/mlarocca/jsgraphs


Sure, 'cause if he/she had, you would already have found a solution! No need to be rude nor arrogant, even more if pointlessly so.


No, it's just that such information makes a huge difference to those that try to make sense of the question, especially a poorly defined and somewhat confusing question as posed here.


How exactly does knowing it's an insurance/finance application magically change the answer to "how to get my head around 100m lines of Java code"? Is there some "financial java code analysis" tool or technique that's so completely distinct from "engineering java code analysis" or "healthcare java code analysis" that it deserves a snotty, condescending retort?


An 'Ask HN' with this level of input is not a guessing game where the people that try to help have to play 'bingo' with the asker for information that may or may not be important for the answer. If there is context available and the asker is free to talk about that context then it should be supplied up-front.

There is nothing snotty or condescending about that, but there is something very weird about this whole thread, I wished I could put my finger on it.


Here a brief description: http://mlarocca.github.io/08-19-2013/vrawler.html

Hope you like it, any suggestion will be much appreciated :D


Thanks for correcting the link.

Documentation is now ready (thanks to YUIDoc http://yui.github.com/yuidoc/)

Looking forward to its launch! First challenge is easy, indeed, but I guess there will be much more difficult ones in the real competitions. Well, perhaps you could have different difficulty levels... and from what I see know, it looks like you are already moving in that direction


Thanks :D Yeah, the tooltip layout is quite a controversial matter, someone hates, someone loves it... but probably more of the former than the latter. ;-)

I think bootstrap is great... Also I was thinking about something like http://suprb.com/apps/gridalicious/ for the videos grids;

The tricky part is that these grids have reactive behaviour on resize (actually I think the response to resize it's one of coolest features, in that the number of videos shown will adjust whenever you resize the browser window, so that everything still fits on the page). So I always need to be able to compute on the fly how many items will fit on the screen, because if the window is smaller than its fullscreen size, then I can actually avoid to retrieve any data for videos that won't fit, and hence cut bandwidth usage and response time.


Thanks! :D

You're right about the design: I built the current one kind of incrementally while adding features, and I'm not a graphic designer either - but I guess you could already tell!!! ^_^. So I'd definitely need to start fresh with a clean design... I'm striving for the help of a professional, actually.

Thanks again, I'm flattered :)
