Note

I will be using examples from my project River Charts for this README.

• The description should be a short paragraph describing what your project is and what it does.
• This should be the first section after the badges.
  • e.g. "A Python, Django, Plotly, and Pandas web application that visualizes river data pulled using an API from the United States Geological Survey (USGS)."
• Add screenshots of your project below the description and throughout the rest of the README as needed.
  • This is optional, but highly recommended especially for Gold projects.
  • Animations in the form of GIFs are also a great way to showcase your project.

Warning

Be sure to change the PRG Connection File Repository Tier parameter from Optimized to Bronze in order to correctly categorize this repository. All templates are currently set to the uncategorized "Optimized" option, so be sure to change this.

Warning

Be sure to change or remove the .gitattributes file from this repository. It's used to classify this template repository as a Markdown file on GitHub only, and is not needed.

Below are some external resources I found helpful when creating My Project:

• Django - A high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design.
• Pandas - A fast, powerful, flexible and easy to use open source data analysis and manipulation tool, built on top of the Python programming language.
