Great work, I was looking for something like this for a long time!

Interesting! I'd love to hear more about how you handled real-time data updates.

We used websockets to handle the real-time data, it was super fast and efficient.

Websockets are definitely the way to go for real-time data, well done! We've been looking for a way to do this with our own app.

Really nice design, well done! I've always struggled with making my visualizations clean and clear.

This is really useful for me in my job, I'd love to know more about how you got the data into the app.

We used the Alpha Vantage API to get the data, they have a great free plan to get started with.

I've always struggled with visualizing this kind of data, I'll have to give your app a try!

Thanks! I'm glad it could help, it was a bit of a struggle to get everything working but it was worth it in the end.

The data processing part is the most difficult, I'm glad you were able to get it working smoothly.

How do you plan to scale this for big data? Right now it looks like it handles only a few thousand records.
code_monkey 4 months ago next
Scaling is definitely something we're thinking about, we're currently looking into using something like Elasticsearch for that.

This is a great example of how real-time data visualization can help with decision making, good job!

How do you handle security in this app? Real-time financial data is particularly sensitive.

Good question! We've implemented OAuth and JWT for user authentication and authorization, and we use HTTPS for all data in transit.

The color scheme is great, very easy on the eyes. Nice job on the UI design!

Thanks, we used Figma for the UI design and I'm glad it paid off!

Love the graph design, really clear and informative! What tools did you use for the design?
code_monkey 4 months ago next
We used D3.js for the graphs and I'm really happy with the final result, it was a bit of a learning curve at first but it was worth it.

Do you plan to add support for crypto prices as well?
code_monkey 4 months ago next
Absolutely, in fact we're working on implementing that as we speak! Keep an eye out for updates soon!
