Update on Aave Analytics and Growth Dashboard - Omni Analytics

Hello Aave Community!

Omni Analytics here again with another update for you on the Aave Analytics and Growth Dashboard. We’ve made some significant progress that we wanted to share:

  1. We have a first version of the dashboard, including most of the metrics we’ve computed thus far, available to play with. We’ve written the dashboard in RShiny, with Flexdashboard powering the layout. Flexdashboard provides an extremely customizable but still easy-to-use layout engine, powered by RMarkdown. If you’re interested in some more details about Flexdashboard, please see the docs here: R Markdown Format for Flexible Dashboards • flexdashboard But at a high level, we now have:
    a. The Covalent API for data access
    b. The R engine for data parsing, cleaning, and manipulation
    c. The Shiny server for dynamic and interactive computations
    d. The Flexdashboard engine for templating and UI design of the dashboard
    We think this stack provides a significant amount of flexibility both in terms of backend and frontend development, and future extensions.

  2. We have cleaned up much of the analysis and posted initial versions of the code for both the backend API calls and the dashboard itself on our GitHub repository here: GitHub - Omni-Analytics-Group/Aave-Growth-Dashboard: Our R-based dashboard on the growth of Aave

Some next steps we will be taking:

  1. Port the remaining queries from the Dune dashboard
  2. Include them in the RShiny dashboard
  3. Clean up and upload the remaining analysis code to the GitHub
  4. Further refine aesthetic elements of the dashboard and the visuals within the dashboard to better highlight the most pertinent Aave growth data.
  5. Setup a hosting solution for the web-accessible version of the dashboard

We hope you like the update, and we will follow up soon when there is more to share! Thanks for all the support up to this point.
