Some personal projects
Bikeshare Data
This is a Python system to pull down data from the Capital Bikeshare REST API, and store it in a local DB. Streaming Change Data Capture is performed on the fact table which is updated at ten second intervals. Dimensions are pulled and compared against target in batch, twice daily.
Currently a backend only system, it utilizes SQLAlchemy as an ORM to map the API and DB data to objects. All data is stored in a Postgres DB on AWS RDS.
Resties
Resties is a web app for people who love restuarants. Users can create lists of restaurants, document visits, and store notes.
Resties is built on Python/Flask backend. Restaurant information is pulled from Google Places API. Reactive, Material based frontend is powered by Materialize CSS framework.
Resties source is deployed on Heroku, stored on GitHub, with Travis CI used to test and deploy.
