npm run serveBasic app functionality
- Draw outline of components and interactions -> clarify and refactor interface of each, esp. store
- Fully test the front end
- Display measure of "goodness" of a restaurant based upon its recent inspections
- Calculate said "goodness" -> # of violations? Severity? Historical probability of restaurant closure vs inspections prior to closure?
- Get data from other local regions
- "Cities" control option that lets you select the city.
- Importers that pull from municipality sources
- Geocode any new restaurants -> Google Maps for max accuracy? Does this lead to less overlap?
- Deploy as a series of lambda scripts that run once per month -> output file to S3, and Flask setup uses this
- Minimize size of JavaScript production file
- Better handling of clusters of restaurants
- E.g. Show popup tooltip when hovering over marker -> preliminary list of restaurants so don't have to click
- Collapse Map options control container to expansion icon
