1/12/2024 - Over the last few weeks I created a cool tool called Dataism, it’s a program that allows data scientists to run data science scripts without the headaches of staring at code. It’s basically Jupityr Notebook and RStudio in a GUI.
It works like this: A data scientist imports their dataset, and they are given a catalog of scripts/models, organized in categories of data science. After an option is selected, you are then given another GUI allowing you to select your required parameters for running the script/model (x variable, y variable, sensitivity, etc.), then the output would be shown on the screen.
Originally, I planned to turn this into a startup. But there were much more powerful alternatives out there which seamlessly runs as a web application. After creating Dataism, I will shift my focus into web development because I've learned that web applications are the future of software. There were many other lessons I've learned from creating Dataism as my first Software As a Service (SaaS) product, which I will go into in this blog post.
