In 2015 I went from being a simple (ProductHunt) Maker to the CTO of Pararius. And got lucky to lead a complete redesign of our website.
Pararius is a dinosaur, founded in 2006 with over 1M visits/month, and although an online platform always outsourced most of their tech stuff. I was able to convince them they needed tech knowledge in the management, and got the opportunity to build a local + remote (hello Romania) team.
The redesign project heavily relies on javascript (ES6) of which you can read more tech details about here: http://pararius.github.io/.
Super proud of our map, so check it out:

Thanks to unbabel.com Pararius is also available in 6 languages.
I've used Pararius over a year ago for some time, and it crossed my mind multiple times why there was no better looking/working alternative.
The result of this huge overhaul is awesome @yvoschaap. This most definitely keeps Pararius ahead of any competitors for a while!
Now only if their native app was just as awesome.. (We at www.eVect.net would love to do that by the way ;-) )
@ernstmul thanks! We hope to become leading in the space again.
Our native apps are actually being updated as we speak. But ping me, maybe there is an longer term opportunity there...
