Each ✅ below indicates something that your team must include.

Slide Deck or Interactive App

If your team submits an interactive app then it should be deployed somewhere such as (shinyapps.io)[https://www.shinyapps.io/] or (heroku.com)[https://www.heroku.com/] so that you can submit the 🔗 as a url.

Data

✅ 🔗 to data source(s) or a file containg the data in your repository.

For example, if your project requires a file > 100MB then store the file in another place (e.g., Google Drive, Dropbox) or if it already has a url then read in the file directly using it's 🔗 :

# R using tidyverse
library(tidyverse)

import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv('https://mydatasource.org/mydata.csv')
