🀜πŸ’₯πŸ› FINALLY hooked up a Google Sheet json to the Chart.js chart, thanks to super helpful help from @atharahmed !

Gave the Care Costs Calculator a home on a civic tech for good collective's domain https://carecostscalculator.better.sg

Spent the morning trying to consume my new Rails API (https://railsapi-booklist.herokuapp.com/books) on Codepen, but shows nothing. Asked for help from @craigpetterson and he found it in the console - I didn't allow for cross-origin resource sharing (CORS)! πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ Tomorrow will install Rack CORS gem and try to win again.

Hey! Try shortening your tasks and instead using the describe feature - makes it easier to read!

Day 628 - Writing teaches me https://cowriters.app/words/writing-teaches-me-443905f4469d53d51d

πŸ€ͺ F**K YEAAAHHH! Finally solved it after a day - JSON data not displaying after initial deployment on Heroku. Had to use `heroku pg:reset` and `heroku pg:push` from local dev db to heroku remote db. Hell I have a headache now πŸ€• but at least I have a production Rails JSON API in return - https://railsapi-booklist.herokuapp.com/books
