This project aims to be a more customizable interface for queries in the Ckan tool. CKAN is an open-source DMS (data management system) for powering data hubs and data portals. CKAN makes it easy to publish, share and use data. It powers hundreds of data portals worldwide. Unfortunately, customize CKAN appearance can be a bit hard. For this reason, a developed this project.
Ckan
Ckan is a technology developed in Python, and little of another technologies including HTML, Javascript and CSS. It also use Jinja, a templating syntax inspired in Django, Bootstrap, and Jquery.
Ckan provides a API for consuming your data with many options of interaction.
Logomark
I made this logo following a concept of a simple forms but strong mood. The ‘A’ of the word ABERTOS, OPEN in English, with and aberture and a square symbolizing a dice. DICE in Portuguese is DADO. A little pun.
The logo and a variation:
This is a example showing Ckan page with a negative variant of the logo:
Frontend proposal for this project
Because the increasing of this amount of technologies together, and because a preference for separating the view layer from other layers, I believe that the Javascript Ecosystem provides a good alternative to deliver a customizable frontend. I developed this concept using Next.js, Typescript and Stitches for styling. Stitches provides a agnostic way to use CSS-in-JS, I’m enjoying using it.

Final considerations
Both the logo and de frontend has not been taken forward, but my work is available in Github, and you can see the current website on https://dadosabertos.unifesp.br/.
