Shape of the Game

datavizfrontend engineering

Shape of the Game is a personal project where I experiment with data-driven, interactive explorations primarily in sports. It started out when I was using dataviz and data science tools to understand user behaviour, and started playing around with sports data in my spare time.

In working on any of these explorations, I use Javascript/Python to scrape, wrangle and start running initial explorations on the data. Following that, I like to move into Vue.js and D3.js to build in custom views and interactivity.

The first two pieces published garnered an Information is Beautiful Awards shortlist and a Pudding Cup respectively.
