Deployment happens:

–> see the slides HERE –> see the Shiny APP HERE

Description:

This tool has been designed to explore apartements in Milan next to your preferred location and compute a monthly rent price estimation given the spatial coordinates and the expected characteristics of the house, such as: rooms square meters. It is composed by a Shiny deployed from a bitbucket repo into shinyapps.io and a set of xaringan slides deployed on Netlify. House data are scraped from immobiliare. Full explanation on the slides.

Dependecies

libs = c("rvest", "magrittr", "stringr", "httr",
"furrr", "plotly", "ggplot2", "DT", "readxl", "dplyr")

new.packages = libs[!(libs %in% installed.packages()[,"Package"])]
if(length(new.packages)) install.packages(new.packages)

Usage:

the first tab-panel in the tab-set let you explore the available houses on the Milano house market, then once you have find the location of the apartement you right click it. This will assign a marker in leaflet object. This marker will be cached in the second tab panel, the price prediciton calculator, where you can also specify other characteristics of the desired house. An autoML model will give the estimation in the lower down part on the left.
In the right drop-down column you can discover other further options to select and the autoML will do its job in parallel.

Project status:

this project is still IN ITINERE, but it has stopped since my university class is completed.

Next features:

  • implement auto-scraping functions
  • choose boostrap .css style
  • better UX
