Virus Tracker

Virus Tracker

I designed this app to fill a need for an easy to digest web app that would always work. To this end I architected the application to exclusively use static data hosted within CDNs, in this way it can handle high request volume and maintain consistent response times and download speeds.

The application was built primarily using React+TypeScript for the frontend with a microservice written in performant Go to periodically update the tracker using trusted sources (Johns Hopkins University in this case).

Stats

I used a clean design language to make the data the focus of the app, making trends more visible and reducing obscurity.

You might notice that the numbers are overflowing because I never expected them to reach that high.

Take a look at the application here, hopefully you find it useful.
