Projects Using factbook.json

[tderflinger]

Servus Gerald,

thanks for your factbook.json project. It is very useful.

I used your JSON data files to import them into a Mongo database. Then I used Apollo to set up a GraphQL API in front of it. Using the project chi-country-facts (https://github.com/tderflinger/chi-country-facts) you can query World Factbook data comfortably using GraphQL (there also exists a web GraphQL playground).
This enables easy data querying and extraction.

Another project of mine is Visual World Facts (https://visual-world-facts.pages.dev), where I try to visualize the World Factbook data in new ways. For example, I visualized the GDP by PPP of world countries with a treemap, which can lead to new insights.

Just thought you might want to know what people actually do with the data you parsed.

If you are curious about some details of the projects, just drop me a line. :)

Keep going doing the good work!
-Thomas

Thanks 😀 , would you mind adding my projects as links to your GitHub README.md page? If there exist other projects that build on factbook.json they could be listed there too.
