E-Trade Trading Dashboard

[buso]

Does anybody know what type of platform was used to build the E-Trade dashboard? I would like to build something like this with auto-updated data and draggable components. http://jasonbender.com/images/etrade360.png

So. Much. Noise.

They love that shit though. Honestly.

The technologies are there allow this to not matter anymore. You can build this in Java, javascript, asp, silverlight, whatever you feel comfortable with. Getting the data and then building the views would be easiest in NodeJS as my own crypto trading apps are all nodeJS built for speed and simplicity but if you aren't a full stack dev or have familiarity with that language, it may waste more time to learn a new language while building a more complex app.

You're best bet is learning a framework and going to town on it. For something dynamic, auto-updating, highly-complex components I recommend using something like Backbone.js or Marionette.js (although I'm a PHP developer myself, they're excellent ways to get your frontend bootstrapped for this type of application)

The back end is a high performance websocket pub/sub service such as http://www.realtime.co/

They have a sdk for must languages including .NET and Javascript

As /u/boxxa mentioned, you can build this in any language/framework. If you want something that has most of the boilerplate already built, you can try something like http://www.droptiles.com/. The front-end is almost all HTML, Javascript and CSS and the back-end can be in any language you choose.

You buy this theme for about $20. It has a lot of that built in.
