ah crap, for some reason it says "3D globe requires a modern browser with WebGL." ... then I understand why codex refused so much. Well, I guess that doesn't really match with it being mobile-first right? can you do something about it?


[Request interrupted by user]


The user is saying the globe shows "3D globe requires a modern browser with WebGL." This means either Three.js or topojson isn't loading properly. Let me check why - it could be:

1. The script loading order (Three.js and topojson need to load before app.js)
2. The CDN URLs might be wrong
3. The scripts might be failing to load

Looking at the HTML, the scripts are in the `<head>` but `app.js` is at the end of body. The `DOMContentLoaded` fires after the DOM is ready, but Three.js and topojson need to be loaded too. Since they're in the `<head>` without `defer` or `async`, they should be loaded synchronously before the body renders. So by the time `DOMContentLoaded` fires, they should be available.

The error message is coming from a conditional check that verifies whether THREE and topojson are defined - if either one is missing, it shows that WebGL error. So one of the CDN URLs isn't loading correctly, which is why those global variables aren't being set. The scripts are loaded synchronously in the head, so they should be available before the page renders, but a network failure would cause the WebGL error. The real solution is to switch from Three.js to an SVG-based world map that works reliably across all devices including mobile, using actual geographic data instead of the current approach. obs from the original)
- Has connecting lines/arcs between country pairs
- Has pins at country locations
- Is truly mobile-first

For a proper 2D map approach, I can use D3.js with topojson (much more reliable than Three.js for this use case), or I could use a pure SVG approach with proper country outlines embedded.

Actually, the best mobile-first approach would be:
1. Use D3.js for geographic projection (equirectangular or natural earth projection)
2. Load topojson world data
3. Draw country outlines as SVG paths
4. Add pins and connection arcs as SVG elements

This would be:
- Mobile-first ✓
- Works on all modern browsers ✓
- No WebGL needed ✓
- Actually easier to implement than Three.js ✓
- Looks great when done properly ✓

Right, so the user originally wanted a 2D map with connecting pins—D3.js is the perfect fit here, not Three.js. I'll swap out the globe for an SVG world map using D3's geographic projections, which solves the WebGL compatibility issue while keeping the red thread connections and pins intact. I'm loading D3 from CDN, setting up an SVG canvas with a natural earth or equirectangular projection, drawing country boundaries, and then layering in the connection arcs and location pins.

Writing the D3 map setup... I'm deciding that quadratic bezier curves will work better for the red thread aesthetic on a 2D map than great circle arcs. My plan is to replace Three.js with D3.js, rebuild the map as an SVG with Natural Earth projection, make it fully responsive and mobile-first, add interactive connection arcs and pins, and keep all the existing interactivity features. I'll pull D3 and topojson-client from CDN and use SVG bezier curves for the connections between countries.

For the arc effect, I'm calculating a midpoint that's elevated perpendicular to the straight line between two points—the elevation scales with the distance between them to create that floating red thread appearance. Now I'm ready to write the updated code.

I need to swap out Three.js for D3, rewrite the map initialization, and make sure the layout works well on mobile with full-width responsiveness and appropriately sized touch targets. The map height should scale with the viewport, and I'll set up the SVG dimensions to handle both desktop and mobile views cleanly.

Writing the updated code...


The issue is clear: Three.js CDN scripts likely fail to load in some environments, and WebGL-based 3D is actually a poor fit for mobile-first. The right tool here is D3.js — a proper SVG 2D world map with real country outlines, connecting arcs, and pins. Works everywhere, looks great on mobile.

About the host

Christina Korf

Christina Korf is a German-Argentine podcast host who knows firsthand what it means to love across borders.

After years of building a life between cultures, she created International Love Story to give other couples the honest conversations she needed but couldn't find. No perfect advice, no glossy expat highlights — just real women sharing the beauty and the hard parts of cross-cultural love.

Since launching, the podcast has grown into a global community spanning dozens of countries, with 100+ episodes covering everything from visa nightmares to bicultural parenting, language barriers, and what happens when your families don't speak the same language — literally or figuratively.
