Data newcomers, hobbyists, and professionals are encouraged to create and share a data visualization, model, app, or other data-related output based on the topic or shared dataset posted in the Bletchley Discord #contests channel. Our goal is to foster our community to share tips, tricks, assistance, and inspiration for creating data output.
- Every other week a topic or dataset will be shared in #contests
- Find a dataset related to the topic of the week
- If a dataset is provided, download it
- Explore the data and create a visualization, model, app, or other data-related output, using the tool of your choice
- Share your creation
- The goal is to practice and improve, so even a simple graph that shows something interesting or leverages a new-to-you technology is worth sharing!
- Paste a screenshot of your creation to #contests
- We also encourage you to share how you created it and link to any related code, notebook, or live output so others can learn and find inspiration from you. See here for a few ways you could share your creation.
- Prizes, badges, and social media shoutouts will be awarded
- Relevance: How well does the project align with the theme?
- Creativity: How original and innovative is the concept?
- Functionality: Does the visualization convey the data effectively? Is it user-friendly?
- Presentation: How visually appealing is the design? Is the visualization clear and informative?
