About Stare.js

The right visualization makes information easier to understand. Sometimes, "an image speaks louder than thousand words", that's why we want to provide tools to ease the process to visualize search engine results.

StArE.js is an open source project intended to facilitate developers the creation of alternative visualizations of search engine results page (SERP). Stare.js provides a modular and extensible processing pipeline capable of (1) transforming SERP, (2) extracting features from individual search results, and (3) visualizing SERP in multiple ways.
