Show HN: Sprites – create online infographics with ease (there was a "Show HN" post about Sprites a while ago but I though it would be good to re-iterate since we've added some great features recently and also because my previous post went a bit unnoticed). Sprites (https://spritesapp.com) is a simple to use web app which allows you to create animated, visual, data-driven presentations (infographics). All presentations are pure HTML5 content and are fully responsive (from mobile to projector) and embeddable (just like GitHub gists, for example). Some other key features include: - Variety of building blocks (including good charting options). - Number of options for power users (custom themes using plain CSS, custom elements using JavaScript). - Data import from Excel, Google Spreadsheets or ordinary URLs. - Analytics (either built-in or using Google Analytics). - Public vs private (password-protected) content. - Ability to download your presentation as an image. - Free vs. Pro ($6/mo) subscription plans. We're actively improving the product and adding features (you can read about some of the most significant ones at our blog: http://blog.spritesapp.com). We launched (semi-officially) some time in January and we're currently a team of two: myself (I made the first version) and my friend (joined me in March to help on the engineering front). Here's a couple of examples of what you can make with Sprites: - "Dubai Airport", https://spritesapp.com/view/embed/1825 - "Time on Internet", https://spritesapp.com/view/embed/3384 - (more examples can be found here: https://spritesapp.com/examples).
