Preliminary: I’m thinking of trying to scrape recent data from the Reddit breakup sub-thread. I would like to visualize heartbreak from the POV of the dumper versus dumpee. The user can navigate + explore both POVs on the webpage by clicking on specific buttons that makes the comments appear; maybe I can integrate trigger scrolling here too. I would try to manipulate the data so that I only display the most relevant parts of the Reddit posts. I appreciate any tips you could share RE: web scraping as I don’t have much experience with this. I know this is an opportunity to use PapaParse, though.
Refined: My project is focused on visualizing snippets of the Reddit breakup sub thread. I want to allow the user to explore the POV of both people who have been broken up with and have initiated a breakup themselves. I plan to keep the number of posts under 200-300 and use the API to retrieve them. I would like to have a title show up on my homepage and then fade/transition out to reveal two “cards” with each POV that can link to a respective scrollytelling collage where the user sees different posts that build upon/connect to each other in their themes/phrases.
