Getting Started 🚀
Welcome to the Streets For All Data/Dev Team! 👋
We are made up of passionate volunteers of all levels of experience. We tend to have a relatively fluid and informal workflow, but we welcome any suggestions on how to improve our processes.
Our work tends to be GIS-heavy. Some projects only involve data analysis or web development. But our integrated data-dev projects usually consist of the Data Team crunching the numbers and outputting the resulting data into (Geo)JSON files, which are then consumed by the Dev Team to build a front-end.
On the data science side, we primarily use Python as our language of choice and 
On the development side, we mainly use JavaScript/Node-based libraries, particularly React. We use Mapbox/Maplibre populated with GeoJSON data to build our maps and 
All this isn't to say we don't/won't use any other languages. These are just the most commonly used among our practitioners, so we tend to gravitate toward them. But we are always open to try new things!
You can get an idea of the stuff we do by checking out the Project Directory. But the best way to get started on a project is to attend one of our weekly meetings, because we discuss outstanding requirements for our in-flight projects. And there might be new projects that haven't been added to the Project Directory yet.
