A weekly update on daily russian personnel and equipment losses in Ukraine are already available on my "calendar" charts. Not sure about the name of the chart, but the calendar seems like a good option.

Perfect topic for my first ever post on #bsky.

I'm #dataviz developer at The Straits Times ( #Svelte, #Vue, #D3, #Three.js, #Threlte & many more). Information design lecturer at the Lviv Arts Academy (Ukraine).

Participated in many dataviz events and observed 17 elections in 11 countries
With the influx of dataviz people, let's do some re-intros. 📊

— What's your claim to fame? ✨ —

How might we know you already?
What have you done that we might have seen or read before?
What would help us remember how we came across you?

Don't be shy: it's helping us reconnect and remember you 💡
