Props to Descartes. When you think about the smartest people who ever lived, his name should at least be considered alongside Einstein's, Newton's, and Aristotle's.

Loved the background history of Cartesian coordinates. Also, the uncomplicated language makes it an easy read. I know how difficult it is to not complicate things with all the extra information.

Thanks! I am glad you liked it. The most difficult part in this article was designing the diagrams as I never did that digitally 😅. Could you recommend any tools that make it faster?

Those look professional quality diagrams, I also loved the cover image. Very creative. I am getting weary of seeing AI generated images.

I don't really know better tools myself. I recently discovered https://excalidraw.com/. Apart from that I have used draw.io as well. These are good for software engineering related diagrams or flow charts, not sure if they could draw a 3d coordinate system as well as you did.

Thanks. I do like draw.io it is very intuitive. My weapon of choice is Canva generally. Will checkout excalidraw!
