Show HN: Data Driven Tech Radar
- lguminski 10y agonice graphs. What tools did you use to generate them? I'm curious.
- kgreene2 10y agoThe graphs looks like they were all created with C3 http://c3js.org/ http://c3js.org/
- frisovv 10y agoThe line and bar charts are c3js indeed, which wraps d3. The mind map graph is done using cytoscape.js. Data gathering, preparation, initial exploratory analysis and pretty much everything else is done with a combination of Jupyter notebooks, some Python scripting, and a set of Jinja2 templates for the HTML and the city specific JS. The JSON which is loaded to populate the charts is also generated from the same Python scripts. The code base is not necessarily something to be proud of, but it works. We focused on analysis (hence, the default bootstrap theme and nothing fancy). We're likely to do a making of talk at one or two meetups here in Amsterdam. Hopefully those will be recorded. There's some additional interesting aspects to the collected data not immediately visible in this presentation. Disclaimer: I did most of the data wrangling and coding on this; also I'm CTO for GoDataDriven, one of the two companies mentioned as producer.
- robbiemitchell 10y agoI was about to say that I would love to see this for NYC, and now I see the "coming soon" button. Boston would also be interesting.
- mrmrcoleman 10y agoHey, one of the creators here. NYC is definitely on the list, keep an eye on Twitter. Hadn't considered Boston, but we will now.

- garysieling 10y agoPhiladelphia would be nice too!
- mrmrcoleman 10y agoAdded it to the list!
- groby_b 10y agoHow about Los Angeles?
- mrmrcoleman 10y agoWill add it!
- surfaceTensi0n 10y agoHow about Chicago?
- mrmrcoleman 10y agoDone deal!

- div3rs3 10y agoGreat work! Mashing up data based on tweets, HN posts and real-world projects (i.e. from GitHub) would be an interesting dimension.
- frisovv 10y agoYeah, I have some ideas about including different data sources. You have to start somewhere, though, and Meetup.com has a nice real-life aspect to it. My best guess would be that Github and HN would add most interesting data from a technology / community popularity and natural language perspective respectively. Question is: how do you connect a Github repo or a HN post to a specific community? Content based? User based? Topic based? The community detection in the real life Meetup.com network is at the very basis of this and for good reasons, so you'd have to find a way to tie other data to that idea.
- fzsix 10y agoVery nice! Despite the super bootstrapped layout, the data itself is really great. And as a result of your work, I'm now seriously considering Amsterdam, haha.
- frisovv 10y agoHorrible shameless plug from the creator here: http://www.godatadriven.com/careers http://www.godatadriven.com/careers
- mrmrcoleman 10y agoHorrible indeed! :-)
