Minneapolis Civic Dashboard
Published: 6/22/2025
This is a work in progress!
🥞Tech Stack: Vite, React, TypeScript, Tailwind
💡Features:
- Up-to-date civic dashboard that pulls directly from the city's official APIs
- Show unique, thought-provoking data that highlights both inequality and positive change
- Future integration with the LRT Visualizer project
🗓️Current Progress: MVP about to be deployed. Researching Prisma and PostgreSQL to use for storing/fetching historical data to track trends.
✨Data Source: OpenData Minneapolis
This is my take on a proper API dashboard, tailored for a very specific demographic! This is a way for me to tell stories about the city of Minneapolis, both the good and the bad, through pure data that's updated weekly. This will be an accessible, fun website that will aim to stoke conversations about what's going on in the Mill City.
