Prego! is a quick reference guide compiling numerous tools for data journalism or other data/map-related projects.
It is meant to be a simple, easy website where people come to look for resources and tools to create data journalism-related or other kind of projects.
Interjection from Italian
- Please! / You're welcome! / Not at all! / Don't mention it!
- A much more warm and emotional "OK" in English
- A multipurpose solution to every language need. Just what does it mean? Well, everything, actually
Prego implies serviceable attention, it commands respect, and it encourages people to either wake up or speak up. Linda Falcone, 2005
In prego you can browse around to find the tools you want to work with for data journalism and other data-related projects. We add the tools we get to know from basically every field, from javascript libraries for graphics to publishing templates and cool APIs.
This work is mostly a compilation list, so there is no attribution required whatsoever and we do not own any copyrights to any tools here, we just link to the source.
The advantage is that you can always come to the same place to find new and awesome things, no more need to be google random words for the tool you are looking for. Enjoy!
Prego! is not the only site that does this kind of compilation (although we have the most tools and promise to keep updating). Check out our evil competitors Datavisualization.ch, graphics Catalogue, Creative Bloq.
Prego! was built by Brazilian journalist Sérgio Spagnuolo, from the data journalism news agency Volt Data Lab.
This is a very simple page, built just with the Jekyll blogging platform and hosted by GitHub Pages. The awesome Jekyll DB template powers this database.
