IPL - Inforgraphic

The story behind this project is that a person has lost interest in watching cricket. So I had to create a web application which will pull out some insights from past 9 years of Indian Premier League Data.

This web application is presenting 6 pieces of information. Each information is represented using a very easy to understand visualization. Each visualization is further couple with text based actionable insight representing the graph in as many words.

Getting Started

This is a repository storing the complete un-compiled typescript code where you can get an idea what I have done here.

To view of demo of the compiled version, head on to this link. Demo Link.

Or to run this code base follow the further steps

Prerequisites

• Install NPM
• Install Angular

Running the application

• Open Terminal
• Go to the cloned directory
• Execute the following command

ng serve --port <port-number>

Data

Since the given data was in .csv format. Web based endpoints were created using PHP which were taking data from the .csv files and transformed further into the required format.

Framework / Libraries Used

• Web framework used is Angular.
  • Primary reason of using this is becuase I have decent understanding of this frameworks.
  • I like the way it maintains the structure of the code.
  • Use of TypeScript enhances the object orientedness of this web framework.
• To build responsive layouts, Bootstrap 4 is used
• Highcharts are used for data visualizations.
• Other technologies used are HTML 5, CSS 3, JavaScript ES6
• This project does not required jQuery.
