Felix is a relocation website that synthesize data from the CDC, Colorado information marketplace (CIM), and national gene reference (NGR) to provide colorado citezens with information about which census tracts are compatible with given conditions and/or diseases.
Felix was designed as part of GoCode Colorado, a statewide competition that specialized in the use of public data. Using Felix me and my team were able to advance to the final round for the second year in a row. The application itself uses over 100 different API calls, most of which come from the CIM and NGR, as well as the google maps API. Feli is built using Javascript and Meteor, a node library.
Felix is one of my favorite projects to date, as it was the first project in which I used any form of API. I really enjoyed learning more about CORS and API calls. As well I enjoyed building something that could make a real difference for an underserved market.
