Phylogenetic Tree

A guided way to explore taxonomy, lineage, and species profiles.

Project walkthrough

A look inside Phylogenetic Tree.

Recorded from a local build with the API running.

Interface captures

Phylogenetic Tree turns a dense taxonomy into a guided exploration. Users can move from cellular life through clades, search scientific and common names, and open species profiles with lineage and reference context.

01

Move through the tree in context

The explorer keeps the current lineage visible while users move between parent and child taxa. Search accepts scientific names, common names, and curated aliases, then opens the selected taxon without dropping the broader branch context.

  • Guided navigation from broad groups toward species
  • Search by scientific name, common name, or alias
  • Taxon profiles with lineage, media, and reference links
  • Simple and advanced profile detail levels
02

Three views of biological relationships

The product has a guided explorer, an alternate 3D tree, and a comparison flow for related taxa. The FastAPI backend serves taxonomy, search, lineage, and graph data to the React interface.

  • Explorer for step-by-step taxonomy navigation
  • Three-dimensional tree for spatial context
  • Comparison view for shared ancestry and divergence
  • FastAPI endpoints for search, profiles, and graph queries
Build journal

What I built, decided, traded, and learned.

What I built

A React and TypeScript client, a FastAPI data service, taxonomy search, profile panels, and tree visualizations.

Key decisions

Keep the guided view calm at high-level clades, then reveal denser detail only when users reach more concrete taxa.

Trade-offs

A large, nested taxonomy is hard to present as one diagram. The interface separates navigation, profile detail, and spatial views so each has a clear job.

Outcomes

A browseable local taxonomy with search, lineage, species profiles, a 3D view, and a comparison workflow.
