World Bank Indicator Explorer Screensaver
The World Bank Indicator Explorer screensaver ranks countries by real World Bank development indicators, cycling through several. It is free, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.
How the World Bank Indicator Explorer screensaver works
The saver reads real, most-recently-reported indicator values by country from the World Bank's open data API.
Countries are ranked by their real reported value, highest first.
The board cycles through several real indicators like internet use and renewable energy share.
No key is required for this key-less public endpoint.
A worked example
A country with a real reported internet-user rate near 100% sits at the top of the board, exactly matching the World Bank's own figure.
