    An interactive web app for searching and filtering money diaries

    I used the programming language R for all of it. I would say maybe 12 hours or so? But I started the project two years ago and then never pushed it over the finish line, so hard to remember. I'm also fairly experienced in using R (learned first in college and been using professionally for 6 years). You can see all the code here.

  • rvest

    Simple web scraping for R

    To get the data from the website, I need to use the package (a set of R code someone created and shared that's designed for a certain task) rvest, then I did a bunch of data munging in R to pull out the location/salary/age/etc. I saved that in a dataset and then used another package flexdashboard to make a webpage which I can essentially "one-click" publish using a free tool called RPubs.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • r4ds

    R for data science: a book

    If you wanted to do something like this, you'd need to start by learning some R - R for Data Science is a great book and available free online (1st edition here and second WIP edition here).

  • flexdashboard

    Easy interactive dashboards for R

    To get the data from the website, I need to use the package (a set of R code someone created and shared that's designed for a certain task) rvest, then I did a bunch of data munging in R to pull out the location/salary/age/etc. I saved that in a dataset and then used another package flexdashboard to make a webpage which I can essentially "one-click" publish using a free tool called RPubs.
