Project Summary

We used APIs to get data from the schools and from the covid reporting. The following APIs were used:
kaggle
arcgis.com

And the code uses plotly, dash, pandas to create a webpage that shows the following graphs: Schools Covid Cases by county

A slider was also implemented to look back in time at cases for each county in the past up to 30 days.
