Save category data in local storage. There is no account to save this per user right now. Hopefully this works. Maybe I could allow them to download the category data as a csv so they can load it again next time. #13

What about a redis database? It's a key value store and readily accessible in R. I guess it needs to run on a server though... we could put one up on my local server (the internet isn't 100% reliable though).

Check out rredis...

this site says that they have a free one... that would probably work for this. Hmm.. maybe I'll switch my one app over to it. https://redislabs.com/

I have not used this before but will check it out. I'll need to handle account logins somehow eventually. On Tue, Apr 7, 2015 at 9:06 PM Theodore Van Rooy notifications@github.com wrote:

yeah... my friend kent has been doing some work on login stuff for a data collection and reporting app we've been working on.

We could most likely repurpose it for this app as well.

That would be sweet. Its critical to many data apps really. Especially anything in finance. Would be good to know how to do that. On Mon, Apr 13, 2015 at 6:34 PM Theodore Van Rooy notifications@github.com wrote:
