Generate image yourself

Prepare for environment

You should have Visual Studio 2010+ installed in Windows.

1. Install nodejs. (Shoule be >= iojs 1.8.0)

2. Install Phantomjs.

If the error occurs, you can check the dependence of phantomjs-node, node-gyp.

What and why?

Have you ever wondered:

• what technologies web front end really includes?
• how many do I possess?

I could not find a really comprehensive diagram that shows the web front end technology stack, so I come up with my own version.

There might be issues here and there, like the category, the individual ones, but the beauty is you can modify it as you want.

You can have a graphical preview here (use mouse to move / zoom):
