SNAP-Ed Community Networks Reshaping App
Description
The SNAP-Ed Community Networks Reshaping App was used by Illinois SNAP-Ed to map SNAP-Ed community networks to census tracts. Illinois Extension defines a SNAP-Ed community network as a geographical area where SNAP-Ed eligible adults live, work, shop, and access community resources. The app allows users to select census tracts for a community network and export their GOIDs as a CSV.
Application
The SNAP-Ed Community Networks Reshaping app is accessible via this link.
Development
Several of the packages used to build this app were in development during intial deployment. Unfortunately, the dependency versions were not saved during deployment. As of 10-20-2022, subsequent attempts to deploy the app were unsuccessful. The SNAP-Ed Community Networks Dashboard and INEP Community Profile were both forked from this repo, and may provide useful reference for rebuiling the SNAP-Ed Community Networks Reshaping App with the renv package for dependency management.
