Process

Outline your approach to the project.  How did  you arrive out the outcome? What did you research and explore? What were the design choices? What challenges were encountered and how did you resolve them? Document design decisions and challenges encountered.

I spent a lot of time deciding which dataset I wanted to use, searching mostly for preexisting datasets I could manipulate. Most of these focused on topics that I had trouble reconciling with "fun and playful", though I found them interesting. I came to Etsy nearly out of desperation, knowing that I would be pretty comfortable working with it. 

I slowly built up a modules and libraries that could process and organize the data effectively. While testing, I also came up with a flawed logic that I could use to present this data. I also pulled assets and style standards from Etsy's css, and fortunately had the font available on my computer, though I could have gotten the text from hacky Chrome developer tools methods as well.

Unfortunately I was unable to get the code working by the deadline, mostly due to the length of time needed to run the program each time. The data displayed is a mockup of what it would look like populated with real data.
