About this site

August 2025. This site is a lightweight visual 'widget' made with plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, deployed on Cloudflare Pages. You can choose between popular stocks, and make the widget full screen if you want it as a display. It pulls live data from the Alpha Vantage API, on the free tier. Therefore, it has some restructions and fallbacks. There is a 'cooldown' of 2 minutes preventing switching stocks, to avoid hitting the API limit. Data is cached during the cooldown, to avoid unecessary API calls. If it cannot retrieve the API data, it will default to reasonably accurate fake data, to maintain the visual element.
