Pavilion

Pavilion started as a personal weekend project: build an IPL dashboard that feels like a broadcast graphic, not a stat table. Big team color, big numerals, scoreboard energy. Within a few weeks the live build hit roughly seventy thousand Instagram views and a creator reached out to license a similar engine for their own platform.

#The brief, by accident

I wanted to watch IPL with the data I cared about. Run rate, required rate, win probability, the moment the chase tilts. The networks bury this stuff. So I built it.

#What it does

• Live scores pulled from cricapi, cross-checked against Wikipedia
• A "team-wrap" visual identity (full-bleed franchise color, never letterboxed)
• An ambient ticker mode for second-screen viewing
• Generated share cards that look right at thumbnail scale

#What I'd write more about

The shift from FastAPI backend to a pure-static front-end deployed on Cloudflare Workers (manual deploys via Wrangler), and the data refresh discipline I had to build in to avoid mocked numbers ever leaking into prod.
