About Us


Welcome! The two of us (Tina and Shyam) have created this site to be a more user-friendly way to create helical wheel diagrams. All of the code to display the helical wheel diagrams themselves were written in D3.js using Observable.

Tina Wang is an undergrad Computer Science major at Caltech. Find more about her here.

Shyam Saladi is a biophysicist and engineer at Caltech. Check out his site here for more about him.
