Ethereum Data Visualization
A Swiss-style Ethereum dashboard for recent block activity, gas usage, wallet state, and RPC resilience.
Colonnade uses Wagmi and Viem to connect browser wallets and query live Ethereum data, then uses D3 scales and path generation to render recent block transaction activity and gas utilization as readable SVG charts.

Technical Stack
02 / Data pipeline
Viem reads the recent chain window directly from RPC and formats Ethereum units.
The app calculates the latest twelve block numbers from the watched block height, calls publicClient.getBlock for each block, extracts transaction counts, gas used, and gas limits, then formats ETH and Gwei values through Viem utilities.03 / Visualization system
D3 calculates the graphics, React keeps ownership of the DOM.
D3 scaleBand, scaleLinear, line, curveMonotoneX, and format convert block data into bar positions, gas utilization points, smooth line paths, and compact block labels. The interface keeps a black-white-gray Swiss grid with red status emphasis.

What I Built
Connects browser-injected wallets such as MetaMask through Wagmi.
Reads current Ethereum block number, gas price, and connected wallet ETH balance.
Queries recent block transaction counts, gas used, and gas limits through Viem public client calls.
Uses multiple public mainnet RPC endpoints through fallback transport to reduce rate-limit stalls.
Builds chart geometry with D3 while rendering the final SVG through React.
