(Coming Soon!) Minneapolis Civic Dashboard

Published: 6/22/2025

🥞Tech Stack: Next.js, 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: Active progress: Establishing an MVP, working toward using PostgreSQL and Prisma to achieve 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.
