Thanks, @theashbhat for hunting this one.
Fun little story about GoingRate, it's created with Google sheets as it's backend!
I wanted to make a site that showcased a few things:
- The going rate for different professions in the tech field in one place
- How those rates were broken down between yearly wages vs. hourly wages
- How national rates compared to bay area rates
But getting a backend up and running is usually a huge pain. I wanted to use this opportunity to figure out a simpler way to try and process data and send it in JSON to the front end.
After some fiddling I ended up using JSON via Google Sheets. This is the actual backend call here: https://spreadsheets.google.com/...
Enjoy.
Cool!
One piece of feedback is that the Contract Hourly Wage Range seems really low for a bunch of roles I looked at. It seems to just be +/-15% on the hourly wage derived from the average salary, but if anyone is actually setting their contractor rate in that way they are vastly underselling themselves.
