Work for the Stanford Daily Data Vis Team.

Each sub-repo contains a seperate visualization.

Clone the repo to your computer, cd into it. After making changes,

git add -A
git commit -m "Write sample commit message in imperative mood (ie not 'Wrote sample...')"
git push

Download repo, then

cd ~/Downloads/daily/data-vis/specific-project

(or into wherever you've downloaded it). Because it relies on requests for JSON files, you've got to launch a local server. Type into the terminal:

python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000

then open your fave browser and find it served to the url

localhost:8000

You're flying!
