The goal is to empower consumers with information that enables them to make informed decisions about which businesses to support, avoid contributing to investment firms approaching a monopolistic hold, and promote small businesses and healthy competition.\nRead more [here from the American Economic Liberties Project](https://www.economicliberties.us/our-work/new-money-trust/)\n\n## Purpose\n\nMy intention for the project is to provide an easy-to-use interface where users can search through various businesses listed in the CSV files. By offering data about these businesses, it helps consumers:\n- **Support small businesses** over large corporations.\n- **Avoid monopolistic companies** and make choices that promote competition.\n- **Make informed purchasing decisions** by evaluating the social and environmental impact of different brands.\n\n## Starting small and scaling from there:\n- The first items to be searchable will be personal care products including:\n    - feminine hygeine products\n    - toothpaste\n    - paper towels and toilet paper\n    - shampoo\n    - baby care products\n    - deoderant\n    - skincare\n\n## Technologies\n- I am utilizing a python script and the pandas library to normalize .csv files and insert them into a sqlite database.\n- I'm using [sqlite viewer](https://sqliteviewer.app/) to view my sqlite database's contents.\n- My mockup was created using Figma.\n\n## Figma Mock-up\n![Mockup](https://github.com/MRLmic/Purchasing-Power/blob/main/Assets/FigmaHome.png)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmrlmic%2Fpurchasing-power","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fmrlmic%2Fpurchasing-power","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmrlmic%2Fpurchasing-power/lists"}
