Easier access to official Swedish statistics

Primary LanguageCSS

This is team Bonobos' repo for the 2015 hackathon Hack For Sweden. The essential idea is to gather popular statistics from authorities such as Statistiska centralbyrån, and present them in a intuitive, user-friendly manner. The answer to your common question should just a [insert favorite search engine] search away.

Some quick remarks of our stack:

  • Flask is powering the back end. We're using a number of Flask extensions, such as Flask SQLAlchemy and Flask Migrate.
  • PostgreSQL is our DBMS of choice.
  • Bootstrap/Bootswatch for rapid front end prototyping.
  • Grunt for handling static assets locally.
  • Amazon S3 for storing images.
  • Google Drive for storing data.
  • Datawrapper for data visualizations.
  • Heroku for deployment.
