Goals

We want to build a COVID-19 dashboard but not just any COVID-19 dashboard. We want to make our own COVID-19 dashboard and make it specified to what we want even if this might be harder.

Some goals that we have in mind are:

  • chloropleth map instead of using the given template for the COVID-19 dashboard, we have decided to use a choropleth map because we wanted to come up with something nobody will have, we also didn't like the given template of the circles.

  • sequential search to see the data of each country We want the user to have full control over what he does in our application, not only that we want the user to have all the information he or she needs. A sequential search would give that information the user would want to know at the snap of their fingertips.

  • a live count of deaths, confirmed, active and recovered A live count of death, confirmed, active and recovered would be a good idea but I don't think we would have the time to make this idea come to like as we would need to have a server constantly updating it to get the correct number of that time/day

  • 4 interactive maps we wanted to make 4 chloropleth maps which show the deaths, confirmed, active and recovered.
