A solar system for a homepage
Stub post. Most personal sites are a list of links. This one is a top-down chart: each section is a planet, and its links are moons.
How it's built
- An SVG chart for the orbits and bodies
- A WebGL layer for the 30,000-dot belt
- Markdown files, built into plain HTML pages like this one
The chart reads the site's own navigation list, so without JavaScript you still get the links.
Code looks like this:
const speed = K / r ** 1.5; // Kepler: outer bodies drift slower
