  Hi HN,

  I couldn't find a richly interactive COVID-19 map anywhere that includes historical data, so I made my own. I used SvelteJS and deck.gl to create a fast and functional frontend. The dataset comes from USAFacts[1].

  I get disappointed when cool stuff like this is made with <canvas> instead of <svg> because I want to look at the DOM, and understand how it was made, but I can't.

  That being said, this is a great visualization.
