Reflection

Reflect on the process of making this project. What did you learn? What would you do differently?

My biggest regret in this project is definitely trying to build a dataset myself. While the process was not difficult, it was time-consuming. I also didn't use any sort of caching of my requests, so debugging required me to make 20+ requests each time I wanted to run the script, which was by far the most annoying part. The remainder of the work was definitely decreased in quality due to the timesuck of writing the requests. I would have liked to do more interesting things with the data, but only used a very small portion of it for this project. As you can see, my data was not correct, so I had to fake data in order to indicate the idea behind my project. This is definitely not good dataviz practice, but if my data had been correct this would not have been necessary.
