The filters on the real estate app list view work now.

Thursday, September 22nd, 2016 at 6:54 PM

Got the filters mocked in to the real estate app, though they are not functioning yet.

Working on cleaning up the UI and making it clearer what the real estate prototype is actually showing you. Spent a long time on the price input and still not sure about it. But things are coming along.

Thursday, September 22nd, 2016 at 12:06 PM

This price input (in millions) is taking longer than anticipated, seems like it might come out nice, though.

Looking at the inputs from dat.GUI for control inspiration.

A good example of an interactive form that updates the outputs as you change the inputs.

The real estate prototype now shows a graph of probability over time and a list of similar neighborhoods.

Friday, September 16th, 2016 at 4:47 PM

The probability distribution graph works, along with the neighborhood focus in the map view. Now working on getting a price over time graph working.

Work not/never to be done.

Building out the neighborhood focus view in the Real Estate prototype. The view now features a probability distribution graph of the sampled prices.

Wednesday, September 14th, 2016 at 4:48 PM

Moved some controls around on the Real Estate prototype. Also added the labels to the map itself and got hover working.

Real Estate Prototype: the sidebar now shows the neighborhoods in a split column arrangement. One side shows the neighborhoods whose prices fall below the price focus, the other shows those whose prices are above.

Monday, September 12th, 2016 at 12:27 PM

Real Estate Prototype work-in-progress. Now with a diverging color scale and the option to switch between chance and price color-coding.

From the landing page for Know Your Company. I like how straightforward the site is in general. Thinking about the Fast Forward Labs site, I wonder if we can use this format of a bolded first sentence/phrase to communicate our principles. So far I'd been trying it more with titles, but I like that this gives the space to elaborate a little more. It might let us come off a little less buzz-wordy, which is always a challenge.

Fast Forward Labs Real Estate prototype in progress. Select the price and the year and see what percent of the properties for sale you would be able to afford in each neighborhood.

Returning to work on the Fast Forward Labs real estate prototype. This time taking what I learned from the structuring of the Lending Club project and applying it -- using Redux and a data-service layer to manage requests to the API (there are too many requests!). Just got the year timeline working again. The color coding here is likelihood you'll be able to afford a place in a neighborhood if you have $1,000,000 to spend.

Screenshot of a couple of New York Times graphs on unemployment. I'm interested in how the graphs de-emphasize axis bars, instead using a background grid. It makes them feel spacious.
