HW 11
For this homework I'll be creating a visualization dashboard website using visualizations I've created in a past assignment. Specifically, we'll be plotting weather data.
In building this dashboard, I'll create individual pages for each plot and a means by which I can navigate between them. These pages will contain the visualizations and their corresponding explanations. I'll also have a landing page, a page where we can see a comparison of all of the plots, and another page where we can view the data used to build them.
The website consists of 7 pages total, including:
- A landing page containing:
- An explanation of the project.
- Links to each visualizations page in a sidebar containing preview images of each plot, and clicking an image should take the user to that visualization.
- Four visualization pages, each with:
- A descriptive title and heading tag.
- The plot/visualization itself for the selected comparison.
- A paragraph describing the plot and its significance.
- A "Comparisons" page that:
- Contains all of the visualizations on the same page so I can easily visually compare them.
- Use a Bootstrap grid for the visualizations.
- A "Data" page that:
- Displays a responsive table containing the data used in the visualizations.
At the top of every page I have a navigation menu that:
- Has the name of the site on the left of the nav which allows users to return to the landing page from any page.
- Contains a dropdown menu on the right of the navbar named "Plots" that provides a link to each individual visualization page.
- Provides two more text links on the right: "Comparisons," which links to the comparisons page, and "Data," which links to the data page.
- Is responsive (using media queries). The nav must have similar behavior as the screenshots "Navigation Menu" section (notice the background color change).
I also used a Bootstrap theme downloaded from Bootswatch to make things look modern minimalistic and clean.
