Raw Blame History

For statistics and data science visuals in hobby projects (e.g., distributions, regression plots, time series, clustering), here’s the optimal workflow balancing quality, performance, and ease of use:

1. Recommended Tools by Task

A. Static Visuals (PNG/SVG)

Task	Best Tool (Python)	Best Tool (R)	Output Format
Distributions	Seaborn (`histplot`, `kdeplot`)	ggplot2 (`geom_histogram`, `geom_density`)	PNG (if dense data) / SVG (if simple)
Scatter/Regression	Seaborn (`regplot`, `lmplot`)	ggplot2 (`geom_smooth`, `geom_point`)	SVG (for interactivity later)
Time Series	Matplotlib (`plot_date`) + Seaborn	ggplot2 (`geom_line`)	PNG (long series)
Heatmaps/Correlation	Seaborn (`heatmap`)	ggplot2 (`geom_tile`)	PNG (large matrices)
Box/Violin Plots	Seaborn (`boxplot`, `violinplot`)	ggplot2 (`geom_boxplot`)	SVG

B. Interactive Visuals (Embeddable in Hugo)

Task	Best Tool	Output Format
Exploratory hover plots	Plotly Express (Python/R)	HTML (embed as `<iframe>`)
Linked brushing	Altair (Python) + Vega	JSON (via Hugo shortcode)
Animated transitions	Plotly (`animation_frame`)	GIF/MP4 (FFmpeg-optimized)

2. File Format Guidelines

Use PNG if:
- Plot has >1,000 data points (e.g., large scatterplots).
- You’re using transparency (plt.savefig(..., transparent=True)).
- Example:
```
# Python (Seaborn)
sns.scatterplot(data=df, x="x", y="y").get_figure().savefig("plot.png", dpi=200, bbox_inches="tight")
```
Use SVG if:
- Plot is simple (e.g., boxplots, small line charts).
- You want to edit colors/text later in Inkscape.
- Example:
```
# R (ggplot2)
ggsave("plot.svg", plot, device = svg, width=8, height=6)
```

3. Optimization Pipeline

For PNGs:

Generate high-res (300dpi) PNGs directly from Python/R.
Compress with oxipng (lossless):
```
oxipng -o 4 --strip safe plot.png
```
- (Alternative: Use ImageMagick -quality 90 -strip).

For SVGs:

Export from tool (avoid unnecessary metadata).

Crush with svgo:

npx svgo plot.svg --config='
{
  "plugins": [
    "removeXMLProcInst",
    "removeComments",
    "removeDoctype"
  ]
}'

4. Hugo Integration

Static images: Place in /static/images/ and reference in Markdown:
```
![Distribution Plot](/images/distplot.png)
```

Interactive plots: Use Hugo shortcodes for iframes:

{{< iframe src="/plots/interactive_plot.html" width="100%" height="500px" >}}

5. Example Workflows

Python (Seaborn + Plotly)

# Static plot
sns.histplot(data=df, x="value").get_figure().savefig("histogram.png", dpi=300)

# Interactive plot
fig = px.scatter(df, x="x", y="y", hover_data=["label"])
fig.write_html("scatter.html")  # Embed in Hugo

R (ggplot2 + Plotly)

# Static plot
ggsave("boxplot.svg", ggplot(df, aes(x=group, y=value)) + geom_boxplot())

# Interactive plot
ggplotly(p) %>% htmlwidgets::saveWidget("boxplot.html")

6. Tools to Avoid

D3.js: Overkill unless you need custom interactivity.
Bokeh: Heavy for static sites; Plotly is simpler.
RAWGraphs: Better for one-offs, not automation.

Final Recommendation

Default to Seaborn (Python) / ggplot2 (R) → Export as PNG for dense plots, SVG for simple ones.
Add interactivity sparingly with Plotly (saved as HTML).
Optimize all files (oxipng/svgo) before Hugo deployment.

  "ads_data": [
    { "date": "2024-05-01", "google_ads": 500, "meta_ads": 300 },
    { "date": "2024-05-02", "google_ads": 700, "meta_ads": 400 },
    { "date": "2024-05-03", "google_ads": 600, "meta_ads": 350 }
  ]
}

6. Create Content Files

content/clients/client1.md:

---
title: "Client 1"
date: 2024-05-23
---

# Client 1 Ads Telemetry

<div class="card mb-3">
  <div class="card-body">
    <h5 class="card-title">Ads Data Visualization</h5>
    <canvas id="adsChart" width="400" height="200"></canvas>
  </div>
</div>

<button hx-get="/clients/client1-data" hx-target="#adsChart" hx-trigger="load">Load Data</button>

<script>
  document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
    const data = {{ .Site.Data.clients.client1.ads_data | jsonify }};
    const ctx = document.getElementById('adsChart').getContext('2d');
    const labels = data.map(item => item.date);
    const googleAds = data.map(item => item.google_ads);
    const metaAds = data.map(item => item.meta_ads);
    new Chart(ctx, {
      type: 'line',
      data: {
        labels: labels,
        datasets: [
          {
            label: 'Google Ads',
            data: googleAds,
            borderColor: 'rgba(75, 192, 192, 1)',
            backgroundColor: 'rgba(75, 192, 192, 0.2)',
            fill: false
          },
          {
            label: 'Meta Ads',
            data: metaAds,
            borderColor: 'rgba(153, 102, 255, 1)',
            backgroundColor: 'rgba(153, 102, 255, 0.2)',
            fill: false
          }
        ]
      },
      options: {
        scales: {
          y: {
            beginAtZero: true
          }
        }
      }
    });
  });
</script>

7. Add Custom JavaScript and CSS

static/js/scripts.js:

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
    console.log('Custom JS Loaded');
});

static/css/styles.css:

body {
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
    line-height: 1.6;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    background: #f4f4f4;
}

#adsChart {
    max-width: 600px;
    margin: 50px auto;
}

8. Create a Server-Side Endpoint

Example Python Flask Endpoint (app.py):

from flask import Flask, jsonify
import json

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/clients/client1-data')
def client1_data():
    with open('data/clients/client1.json') as f:
        data = json.load(f)
    return jsonify(data['ads_data'])

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

9. Run the Hugo Server

hugo server -D

Summary

Project Setup: Hugo site created with Bootstrap theme.
Organized Content: Structure for clients and data files.
Integrated HTMX: HTMX included for enhanced interactivity.
Data Visualization: Charts implemented using Chart.js.
Dynamic Data Loading: Server-side endpoint for dynamic data.

By following this structured approach, you can create a robust and interactive data visualization site using Hugo, Bootstrap, and Chart.js. If you have any further questions or need additional details, feel free to ask!

Integrating HTMX into your Hugo project can enhance the interactivity of your site without requiring a full-fledged JavaScript framework. HTMX allows you to make your static site more dynamic by enabling AJAX, CSS Transitions, WebSockets, and Server Sent Events (SSE) directly in HTML. This can be particularly useful for enhancing user experience without the complexity of traditional JavaScript frameworks.

When to Use HTMX

HTMX is useful for:

Enhancing Interactivity: Adding dynamic features like in-place content updates, form submissions, and interactive elements without a full JavaScript framework.
AJAX Requests: Making asynchronous requests to the server to update parts of your page without reloading.
Progressive Enhancement: Gradually enhancing your static site with more interactive features.

Integrating HTMX into Hugo

Here's how you can integrate HTMX into your Hugo site, especially for data visualization and client reports.

Step-by-Step Integration

1. Install Hugo and Create a New Site

If you haven't already, install Hugo and create a new site:

hugo new site smma-telemetry
cd smma-telemetry

2. Initialize Git and Add a Bootstrap Theme

git init
git submodule add https://github.com/razonyang/hugo-theme-bootstrap themes/hugo-theme-bootstrap

Update your config.toml to use the theme:

baseURL = 'https://example.org/'
languageCode = 'en-us'
title = 'SMMA Telemetry'
theme = 'hugo-theme-bootstrap'

3. Set Up Project Structure

mkdir -p content/clients
mkdir -p data/clients
mkdir -p static/css
mkdir -p static/js

4. Add HTMX to Your Project

Add HTMX via a CDN in your base layout file.

5. Create Data Files

Store ads telemetry data for each client in JSON format. For example:

data/clients/client1.json:

{
  "name": "Client 1",
  "ads_data": [
    { "date": "2024-05-01", "google_ads": 500, "meta_ads": 300 },
    { "date": "2024-05-02", "google_ads": 700, "meta_ads": 400 },
    { "date": "2024-05-03", "google_ads": 600, "meta_ads": 350 }
  ]
}

6. Create Content Files

Create a content file for each client. For example:

content/clients/client1.md:

---
title: "Client 1"
date: 2024-05-23
---

# Client 1 Ads Telemetry

<div class="card mb-3">
  <div class="card-body">
    <h5 class="card-title">Ads Data Visualization</h5>
    <canvas id="adsChart" width="400" height="200"></canvas>
  </div>
</div>

<button hx-get="/clients/client1-data" hx-target="#adsChart" hx-trigger="load">Load Data</button>

<script>
  document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
    const data = {{ .Site.Data.clients.client1.ads_data | jsonify }};
    const ctx = document.getElementById('adsChart').getContext('2d');
    const labels = data.map(item => item.date);
    const googleAds = data.map(item => item.google_ads);
    const metaAds = data.map(item => item.meta_ads);
    new Chart(ctx, {
      type: 'line',
      data: {
        labels: labels,
        datasets: [
          {
            label: 'Google Ads',
            data: googleAds,
            borderColor: 'rgba(75, 192, 192, 1)',
            backgroundColor: 'rgba(75, 192, 192, 0.2)',
            fill: false
          },
          {
            label: 'Meta Ads',
            data: metaAds,
            borderColor: 'rgba(153, 102, 255, 1)',
            backgroundColor: 'rgba(153, 102, 255, 0.2)',
            fill: false
          }
        ]
      },
      options: {
        scales: {
          y: {
            beginAtZero: true
          }
        }
      }
    });
  });
</script>

7. Add Custom JavaScript and CSS

static/js/scripts.js:

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
    console.log('Custom JS Loaded');
});

static/css/styles.css:

body {
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
    line-height: 1.6;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    background: #f4f4f4;
}

#adsChart {
    max-width: 600px;
    margin: 50px auto;
}

8. Create a Server-side Endpoint

To handle HTMX requests, create a server-side script (e.g., in Python or another language of your choice) to serve the data dynamically.

Example Python Flask Endpoint (app.py):

from flask import Flask, jsonify
import json

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/clients/client1-data')
def client1_data():
    with open('data/clients/client1.json') as f:
        data = json.load(f)
    return jsonify(data['ads_data'])

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

9. Run the Hugo Server

hugo server -D

Visit http://localhost:1313 to see your site in action.

Summary

Tech Stack:

Hugo: For building and deploying your static site.
Markdown: For writing content and reports.
Bootstrap: For responsive design and consistent styling.
Chart.js: For creating interactive data visualizations.
HTMX: For enhancing interactivity with minimal JavaScript.
Python/Flask: For server-side data processing and handling HTMX requests.

Implementation:

Set up Hugo and configure your project structure.
Create data files and content files for each client.
Use Bootstrap for styling and Chart.js for visualizations.
Enhance interactivity with HTMX for dynamic data loading.
Use Python/Flask for server-side data handling.

This approach ensures you have a robust, scalable, and interactive solution for SMMA data reporting, leveraging your data analysis skills while keeping the setup and maintenance straightforward. If you have further questions or need more detailed guidance, feel free to ask!

Here's a detailed approach to creating a data visualization project using Hugo, Bootstrap, and Chart.js, broken down into specific steps and components:

1. Project Setup

Install Hugo: Make sure Hugo is installed on your machine. Follow the installation guide from the official Hugo site.
Create a New Hugo Site: Run hugo new site <site-name> to generate a new Hugo site.
```
hugo new site smma-telemetry
cd smma-telemetry
```
Choose a Theme: Select a Hugo theme that supports Bootstrap, or integrate Bootstrap manually. For this example, we'll use the "Hugo Bootstrap" theme.
```
git init
git submodule add https://github.com/razonyang/hugo-theme-bootstrap themes/hugo-theme-bootstrap
```

2. Organize Content Structure

Create Sections: Define sections in your Hugo site for different reports. Each section can represent a different data report.
- Example: content/reports/
```
mkdir -p content/reports
```
Markdown Files: Create Markdown files for each report in the corresponding section.
- Example: content/reports/report1.md
```
hugo new reports/report1.md
```

3. Layout and Templates

Base Template: Create a base template in layouts/_default/baseof.html to include the common HTML structure, including Bootstrap CSS and JS. layouts/_default/baseof.html:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>{{ .Title }}</title>
    <meta name="description" content="{{ .Description }}">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.2/css/bootstrap.min.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ "css/styles.css" | relURL }}">
</head>
<body>
    <nav class="navbar navbar-expand-lg navbar-light bg-light">
        <a class="navbar-brand" href="{{ "/" | relURL }}">{{ .Site.Title }}</a>
        <button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarNav" aria-controls="navbarNav" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
            <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
        </button>
        <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarNav">
            <ul class="navbar-nav">
                <li class="nav-item">
                    <a class="nav-link" href="{{ "/" | relURL }}">Home</a>
                </li>
                <li class="nav-item">
                    <a class="nav-link" href="{{ "/reports/" | relURL }}">Reports</a>
                </li>
            </ul>
        </div>
    </nav>
    <main class="container mt-4">
        {{ block "main" . }}{{ end }}
    </main>
    <footer class="footer bg-light text-center py-3">
        <p>&copy; {{ now.Format "2006" }} {{ .Site.Title }}</p>
    </footer>
    <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.5.1.slim.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@popperjs/core@2.9.2/dist/umd/popper.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.2/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chart.js"></script>
    <script src="{{ "js/scripts.js" | relURL }}"></script>
</body>
</html>

Single Report Template: Create a single report layout in layouts/reports/single.html to define how each report page will be rendered. layouts/reports/single.html:

{{ define "main" }}
<article class="report">
    <header>
        <h1>{{ .Title }}</h1>
        <time datetime="{{ .Date }}">{{ .Date }}</time>
    </header>
    <section>
        {{ .Content }}
    </section>
</article>
{{ end }}

4. Static Files

CSS and JS: Add custom CSS and JS files in the static/ directory for additional styling and scripting if needed.
```
mkdir -p static/css
mkdir -p static/js
```

Custom CSS: Create a custom CSS file for additional styles. static/css/styles.css:

body {
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
    line-height: 1.6;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    background: #f4f4f4;
}

.report {
    max-width: 800px;
    margin: 50px auto;
    padding: 20px;
    background: white;
    border-radius: 10px;
    box-shadow: 0 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}

.report header {
    margin-bottom: 20px;
}

Custom JS: Create a custom JS file for additional scripts. static/js/scripts.js:

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
    console.log('Custom JS Loaded');
});

5. Integrate Chart.js

Chart.js Configuration: In your report Markdown files, include configuration details for the charts. You can use shortcodes or partials for better organization.

Shortcode Example: Create a shortcode for Chart.js in layouts/shortcodes/chart.html. layouts/shortcodes/chart.html:

<canvas id="{{ .Get "id" }}" width="400" height="200"></canvas>
<script>
  var ctx = document.getElementById('{{ .Get "id" }}').getContext('2d');
  var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
    type: '{{ .Get "type" }}',
    data: {
      labels: {{ .Get "labels" }},
      datasets: [{
        label: '{{ .Get "label" }}',
        data: {{ .Get "data" }},
        backgroundColor: {{ .Get "backgroundColor" }},
        borderColor: {{ .Get "borderColor" }},
        borderWidth: 1
      }]
    },
    options: {
      scales: {
        y: {
          beginAtZero: true
        }
      }
    }
  });
</script>

Usage in Markdown: Use the shortcode in your report Markdown files. content/reports/report1.md:

---
title: "Report 1"
date: 2024-05-23
---

# Report 1 Data Visualization

{{< chart id="myChart" type="bar" labels='["Red", "Blue", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", "Orange"]' data='[12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3]' label="Votes" backgroundColor='["rgba(255, 99, 132, 0.2)", "rgba(54, 162, 235, 0.2)", "rgba(255, 206, 86, 0.2)", "rgba(75, 192, 192, 0.2)", "rgba(153, 102, 255, 0.2)", "rgba(255, 159, 64, 0.2)"]' borderColor='["rgba(255, 99, 132, 1)", "rgba(54, 162, 235, 1)", "rgba(255, 206, 86, 1)", "rgba(75, 192, 192, 1)", "rgba(153, 102, 255, 1)", "rgba(255, 159, 64, 1)"]' >}}

6. Build and Deploy

Local Development: Use hugo server to serve your site locally and see the changes in real-time.
```
hugo server -D
```
Deployment: Once satisfied, deploy your site to a hosting platform of your choice (e.g., GitHub Pages, Netlify).
```
hugo --minify
```
