Summary

In response to the difficulty of finding up-to-date local COVID-19 infection rates necessary for school reopening decisions in Minnesota, the author developed a solution using GitLab Pages to automate the calculation and presentation of this data. Initially, the author manually calculated the infection rates per 10,000 residents, but soon created a Kotlin script automated with GitLab CI/CD pipelines to download data, calculate the rates, and publish the results on a static website using d3.js for graphing. By scheduling these processes to run multiple times a day, the author ensured the availability of the most recent COVID-19 statistics for personal use and community benefit, providing a valuable resource for gauging local pandemic conditions.
