MVP

[clincha]

Google Sheets is a limited front end for this data. A better front end would be something like Kibana from the Elastic Stack. I could also use Elastic Search to store the data in document format for parsing.

Create an MVP using the existing Starling API calls to put data into an Elastic instance. Visualise the data in an interesting way.

I've created the MVP. It wasn't too difficult and this is the result:

It took about 20 lines of modified code to get the API passing data into Elastic Search. I used the Elastic cloud offering to host the instances which made it really easy to get something up and running quickly.

With the MVP complete I'd like to focus on these items for the next iteration

• Put all transaction history for a single account into the database
• Create a line graph of balance over time
• Create a bar chart for total spend per month
