Build a simple app that uses this API

Opened this issue · 7 comments

"The #1 best way to understand and address the weaknesses in an API's design and implementation is to use it in a production system. Whenever feasible, design an API in parallel with an accompanying integration of that API."

Maybe something like:

Also it's a great way to showcase the API.

@marcoslhc how is the app going? I think @leordev and I might build a second webapp to test some things, in clojurescript!

Features List

  • Dashboard to query data using input boxes (instead of having to use the api manually)
  • Be able to use charts/graphs to visualize important data
  • Analyze data to generate new data from it (statistics, probabilities). We have a contributor interested in analyzing this data using machine learning techniques

Just a quick update on the Front End app, @marcoslhs and I will be back by January to complete the first iteration.

@Pancakerobot The API is running here http://45.55.191.140 You'll see the root endpoint responds with a description of all endpoints. All endpoints are GET requests and, when optional query params are available, they will be described on the API's JSON response.
