Data management is a field and skill that is intensely associated with computer science. However, not too many data management tools are designed with beginners in mind.
I had the opportunity to work with the Local Ground team for Cornell University, to support the following task: How to manage data at browser level?
To best tackle the problem, the team and I had to instantiate the following principles:
Easily visualize data
Accessible for complete beginners
Simple to add, edit, and delete data
Given the problem space, I implemented a number of important features and improvements including, but not limited to:
Reducing steps for data management
Clean Aesthetic
Accessible
Easy to manage data
All done on browser
