A force-directed grid arranges fermented food projects by month, with circles colored by ingredient type and sized by fermentation length. The visualization uses d3.forceSimulation with forceX, forceY, forceManyBody, and forceCollide to position nodes based on month coordinates. SVG circles render the data, and a tooltip appears on mouseover to display the project name. The dataset comes from a JSON file cataloging fermented foods across months, using D3 v6.
