Description

This repos allows other people to provide new data by opening new pull requests. It is as simple as it follows:

• fork the repo
• modify the .env file with some new data
• open an pull request
• as it is accepted the workflows starts, doing the following steps:
  • runs the notebook to do:
    • updates the dataset
    • updates the histogram
    • saves it on a png file
  • commits changes to github
• and... voila. New data and new plot

the idea is quite simple, but it can get extended to whatever the repo owner wants.
