About

Being a soccer fan is fun, but sometimes following a league or team isn't enough. Akin to the heightened sense of being that frequenting microbreweries and/or operating a French press brings oneself, there's nothing like telling your friends about budding talent before an Italian club signs them on a loan-to-buy deal.

Who will be the next wonderkid? How high is their ceiling? How long has Harry Styles played for Norwich City and was he always this good? These are the questions El Aggregator attempts to answer.

How it works

El Aggregator is a containerized React app deployed on Heroku. Simply search by player name or team name, powered by Algolia. Team data and player ratings are collected from SoFifa and stored in Google Firebase, and player highlights are obtained via the Reddit and YouTube APIs.

Features

  • Search by team or by player
  • Aggregates FIFA ratings and highlights for every player
  • Isolate the young studs on each professional team with the intuitive UI.
