### [1] Spring Clean Your Data

**Project Lead:** Fernando Rios, [e-mail]

**Project Description:**
A block of time for people to sit down and clean up their computers. E.g.,
- Organize files and folders
- Document stuff and create readme files
- Figure out what to throw away and what to keep
- Clean up your spreadsheets
- Do some data cleaning and/or structuring for reproducible research
- Create a backup plan

Project lead will facilitate a loosely-structured virtual session and can share best practices and provide resources, tools, etc. There will be opportunities for individuals to share strategies, tools with each other. End goal is for participants to have actually cleaned up some of their files and/or data.

**Do-a-thon instructions**
- Take 5 minutes to figure out what you want to accomplish. DON'T focus yet on how to do it. E.g.,
- "I want to organize the files for project ABC"
- "I need to clean up the spreadsheet from last year's fieldwork"
- "I want to back up my dissertation files"
- "I need to figure out a system for keeping my dissertation organized", etc.
Write down your answer in the HackMD
- We will work individually in 15 minute intervals. A 2-5 minute break for people to ask questions and get feedback from others.

### [3] Let's build some visualizations together
**Project Lead:** Kelsey Gonzalez and Adriana Picoral

**Project Description:**
Making basic ggplot visualization publication or presentation ready takes a decent amount of thought and time. Together, we will pick a dataset, plan out a visualization, and go through the process of making it decent to making it beautiful. This is useful practice to go through the logics of visualization while also seeing what is possible with ggplot and its extensions.

### [5] Gooey: Give your Python scripts a friendly, graphical user interface (GUI)

**Project Lead:** Julian Pistorius, julianp at arizona dot ee-dee-you

**Project Description:** Turn (almost) any Python 2 or 3 Console Program into a GUI application with one line

From the project description: https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey

> **What is it?**
>
> Gooey converts your Console Applications into end-user-friendly GUI applications. It lets you focus on building robust, configurable programs in a familiar way, all without having to worry about how it will be presented to and interacted with by your average user.
>
> **Why?**
>
> Because as much as we love the command prompt, the rest of the world looks at it like an ugly relic from the early '80s. On top of that, more often than not programs need to do more than just one thing, and that means giving options, which previously meant either building a GUI, or trying to explain how to supply arguments to a Console Application. Gooey was made to (hopefully) solve those problems. It makes programs easy to use, and pretty to look at!
>
> **Who is this for?**
>
> ... if you're building 'run and done,' around-the-office-style scripts, things that shovel bits from point A to point B, or simply something that's targeted at a non-programmer, Gooey is the perfect tool for the job. It lets you build as complex of an application as your heart desires all while getting the GUI side for free.

**Zoom Meeting Room:** [Main ResBaz Zoom room (for now)](https://arizona.zoom.us/j/95920510188)

**Date and Times:**

Session 01: Wednesday, 2020-05-27, 10:30AM - 12:00PM

Please vote on the When2meet poll link to in case we want to set up other sessions:

<https://www.when2meet.com/?9148834-zd1qG>

I think it'll take about an hour per application to add a simple GUI using Gooey (depending on how complex the input of your application is)

**Website:** <https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey>

**GitHub/BitBucket Repository:** <https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey>

Chun's GitHub project to Gooey: https://github.com/ualibraries/DataRepository_research_themes

Examples: <https://github.com/chriskiehl/GooeyExamples>

Julian's demo script: <https://github.com/julianpistorius/irods-gooey>

**Software and Tools:**

- Python3, installed and working
- Your own, existing Python script that you want to give a pretty, graphical user interface

**Team Members:**

1. Julian Pistorius, software engineer
2. Sateesh Peri, grad student
3. Chun Ly, Python programmer, chunly at arizona dot edu
4. Rebecca Vanderpool, vanderpoolrr at arizona dot edu, Assistant Professor
5. Tiffany Bledsoe
7. Skye Anderson, UA Linguistics PhD candidate, skanderson at arizona dot edu

Notes:

Installing with conda
