Scientific Journals Board Screensaver
The Scientific Journals Board screensaver ranks real scientific and technical journal articles published by country. It is free, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.
How the Scientific Journals Board screensaver works
The saver reads real scientific and technical journal articles published data from the World Bank's own open data API.
Countries are ranked by their real latest reported journal-article output.
The pipeline refreshes as the World Bank republishes the underlying dataset.
No key is required for this key-less public endpoint.
A worked example
A real country's most recent reported journal-article output is ranked against the real others, with bars easing into place as the board loads.
