small preview =)
I’ll have to write a readme, then I’m done.

@LukeCodewalker wow! you made a great job here! thx alot for your time/work/involvment!

@bibi this code utilizes WebGL which brings RPI to its knees. You can run the MM on a different more powerful hardware, though. As for the module, I have got a POC working on my dev box with a sample data.

Yes I am also leaning heavy on creating a bigger mirror running on a much more powerful board.
Can’t decide if I want to use a mini pc or itx board…

@alexyak which is your dev box if i may ask?
-
@bibi Macbook Pro

Small correction about WebGL on RPI - the chromium/hardware will not even run. You will an error message that it’s not supported.

Here’s how the module based on WebGL looks like on my dev box:

It displays twitter stream of the tweets that have location. Red lines signify the negative sentiment and green positive. White is neutral.

@alexyak Very nice job! it’s exactly what I had in mind when I open this topic. Sad that can’t be run on RPI…
