What a fantastic article! How did you create the animations?

Thank you! <3

These are all built with React and CSS animations (or the Web Animations API where I needed it). I’m not very good at React so the code is a real mess. 2 of the components also use threejs for the 3D bits.

For the stuff on my personal site, which simonw graciously linked to in another reply, you can see all the code behind my work at https://github.com/samwho/visualisations

Sam has a long history of building beautiful visual explanations like this - I didn't realize he works for ngrok now, here's his previous independent collection: https://samwho.dev/
