- I've been looking for something exactly like this, actually! I'm making a hardware device that is a habit tracker, and the screen will be a few 7 segment displays. Being able to simulate the displays like this is very nice. Also very cool that it displays whatever you type in!by radeeyate
- Is there any physical hardware that uses the same segmentation scheme?
Edit: I now notice it mentions Spanish trains, although the link 404s

- Oh man, making a 7-segment display was my favorite question to ask frontend developers. Eventually turning it into a real clock if they were fast enough. Captures lots of basic CSS positioning, JS timers behavior and general ideas like breaking things into components etcby mohsen1
