I was watching the vid below on AHK and barcode scanners, he tells a story, about 7.20 min in about someone who uses barcodes to record feeding times and cage numbers to speed up record keeping. I thought that would be an interesting project for learning about recording data on plants, thinking about OraPharm (My

I was reading an article today “‘Clunky’ government covid app used ‘minimally’ in Marlborough, businesses say“ I thought about building one with GlideApps. Then I thought about it some more and realised that GlideApps does not actually access any of your Phones features, its only a web page. Then I saw the video below and

I saw this video on Kepler & React and was excited about the Kepler app. I want to try it with NZ covid data that I’m getting from some API endpoints. But its not structured in a GeoJson format. This is a tool that Uber have developed and shared, which is nice of them. I’m

I m very excited as I’ve found out about JS Template literals, I think I’ve used some in code but was not aware of it. The video below is a very good tutorial: There is also a link to Codepen of 1/ the basics, so you can follow along, and the complete solution HERE. The

I want to play with 1/ Covid Data & 2/ API’s. I’ve done some bits with Postman & API’s before but not very successfully. So this time I’m watching the following video: It is pulling in the Postman scripts for the API calls and I want to follow on with what they are doing. After

The Ministry of Health(MoH) have posted the original dataset on a different web page of each case and which District Health Board (DHB) they are under. The data can be found here. Instead of by region, its mapped to the District Health Board Regions. So the original map I was using in this post is

I suppose I could use PowerBI but I’ll srick with Excel for the moment. PowerBI has the dashboard but I did find it slow, its speed may have improved but that is for testing another day. I’m using the John Hopkins Github repository of Data which is updated daily and what they use for their
