Features in progress:

  • D3 visualizations, to update in real-time in response to user filters and queries
  • data to be filterable by felony and misdemeanor classes parsed out from offense detail
  • donate buttons at the side of each row, to request earmarked donations
  • current trends displayed with calls to action, based on recent analysis of inmate data
  • integration of inmate data from additional US states
  • mobile app powered by React Native or Firebase

Known bugs:

  • queries return multiple days of results for the same inmate
  • Paypal donate button disabled until linked to the CT Bail Fund correctly
