Running Bar Graphs

Stats Fm is able to tell stories about a users life and tastes exceptionally well by being able present data interesting ways. Current features allow people to look through their history with the calendar at the bottom right of the page.

However what this lacks is easy readability and a progressive nature of a story. To more effectively describe and interact with the users data a running bar graph makes an easy data set.

using this website: https://flourish.studio/ I was able to create my own running bar graph: https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/17678741/

This was successful in creating the story of my listening history but I manually entered 4 years of Spotify data into a spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1frHaVXtuLxrdF00lvpfPOTzZ3-H_6hN7rpwNRgKFhRQ/edit?usp=sharing

I wish I new code, or someway to speed up the process but the result I feel tell my story of listening history so well that I feel really glad that I put the effort in and I can’t wait for the end of the month to see how my listening has changed the data.

Adding running bar graphs is a new way to convey to people the data that makes up their lives, please consider adding this feature :)
