Technical Implementation

Real-time Data Pipeline

TypeScript
7 linesCopy
1// WebSocket connection for real-time updates
2const ws = new WebSocket("wss://analytics.example.com/events");
3
4ws.onmessage = (event) => {
5  const analyticsEvent = JSON.parse(event.data);
6  updateDashboard(analyticsEvent);
7};

Data Visualization

React TSX
13 linesCopy
1// D3.js integration for custom charts
2export function CustomChart({ data }) {
3  const svgRef = useRef<SVGSVGElement>(null);
4
5  useEffect(() => {
6    if (!svgRef.current) return;
7
8    const svg = d3.select(svgRef.current);
9    // D3 chart implementation
10  }, [data]);
11
12  return <svg ref={svgRef} />;
13}
