The app is build from the ground up to be high performant and easy to use:

• ⚡ The app consistently runs at 500fps
• ⏱️ Time to first draw is just 200ms
• 📥The executable is a mere 1MB. This was the motivation to move on from ~300MB electron apps.
• 🌐 Single executable file, run from anywhere, no dependencies
• 🖥️ Windows and Linux support
• 🖹 the source code is < 200 lines, since it relies heavily on the samarium library for plotting.
• ✨ flexibly specify data format in a format.json file
