--- categories: - software date: 2018-05-24 title: Data science with functional programming and a MOBA API --- I created a meta statistics website for the League-of-Legends-like game Vainglory. The mobile online game [Vainglory](http://vainglorygame.com) publishes players' game data via [an API](http://developer.vainglorygame.com). Using [RamdaJS](http://ramdajs.com), a functional JavaScript library and knowledge gained from previous projects with the Vainglory API, I built a set of scripts to extract win and usage statistics of the four most popular game modes in Vainglory. You can check the statistics on [this website](http://brokentalents.fun), which is built using the [VueJS](http://vuejs.org) and [BulmaCSS](http://bulma.io) frameworks and [hosted on GitHub pages](https://pages.github.com/).
