While Flipside and Dune are great platforms for dashboard creation, some use cases require more flexibility. This includes creating customized reports, more complicated visualizations, or statistical analysis.
This Learn in Public series will go over the basics of interactive data visualizations, and alternative ways to share dashboards without having to host your own web server (and no Javascript experience!).
Learn in Public is meant to be a hands-on series, meeting weekly over approximately one month. Participants are highly encouraged to complete the assigned tasks from the week and be involved in discussion. There are suggested prerequisites necessary to be able to fully participate.
For this series, participants would be expected to have some basic coding and data analysis knowledge, ideally in Python (though other languages like R would probably translate).
The first part of this course will cover the , focusing on the notebooks from this (3 weeks).
The second part of this course will turn these data visualizations into dashboards, using or (details will be determined and updated). We’ll end with a submission for a Metrics DAO bounty using the new skills learned in the course.
There will be assignments to be completed before each weekly discussion, so that everyone has already had a chance to complete the work before going over it in more details. Each week will be led by a moderator who will walk through that week's assignment, facilitate discussion and help answer questions.
Basic knowledge of Python, or another programming language is required. This series is not designed for complete beginners to coding.
Here are some resources to learn Python for future endeavors!

Intro to dashboards
In our final week, we’ll end with an overview of creating interactive dashboards, to share the great visuals you learned to create!
At this point, you can use Altair and streamlit to solve bounties on MetricsDAO or other platforms!

TBD: Data and Chill on Discord
Level up your bounty submission!
Stay in contact over Discord to continue using the skills learned here for future bounties.
We have a dataset of hourly UST and LUNA price information. Let's use it to make a chart!
Create a new cell in one of the Colab notebooks, run those lines to create your DataFrame, and then use the Altair knowledge you have to visualize the data.
We’ll get started using Altair following the . To make things simpler, the notebooks are used so no installation is necessary.
Optional: Prepare a bounty submission for MetricsDAO Streamlit References:
The query used to get the dataset is and can be read into python with the following code:
