Graphr, the JavaScript graphing calculator

Graphr

A fully-fuctional graphing calculator made using HTML5 and JavaScript. By using the <canvas> tag, I was able to plot functions without the use of Flash. It sports a intuitive user interface, with mouse panning and scrolling support. It also uses techniques like Newton's Method to find key facts about a function, such as roots, maxima/minima and intersections.

Convertr: unit conversion done right

A web demo version of Convertr.

A unit converter is a simple app that performs calculations such as "how many feet are in a mile?" However, because they are so easy to implement, they are often done hastily and without much thought. The result is often a barebones app that is cluttered with menus and devoid of features.

Convertr changes that. It is fast, fully-featured, accurate and polished. It features a single input field that predicts the conversion that the user is looking for as soon as they start typing. As a result, users can get answers up to 90% faster, and they no longer have to navigate multiple menus just to get a simple conversion.
