An Open Source Data Dictionary for Cities in RoR5 + React

As Cities start working through the ‘What Works Cities’ program, you quickly come upon the requirement to build a ‘data dictionary’. Looking around, everything looked like some variation of a spreadsheet, but I wanted to something that would help visualize and surface the data relationship between our myriad applications.

This project also filled three side goals for me:

  • I wanted to contribute something that was open source
  • I wanted to play with Ruby on Rails 5 and webpack
  • I wanted to try out React

I've made it available under MIT license on github; I'd love your feedback.
