Overview
Something Lucid users often tell us is "I have data that I want to visualize. This can be very time consuming to do by hand. Is there a way to programmatically visualize this data?"
The answer is yes! Using Lucid's Developer Platform, developers can build automations that create visualizations in Lucid using data stored outside of Lucid (spreadsheets, databases, etc). There are many ways to do this using Lucid's Extension API and REST API.
The purpose of this app is to quickly demonstrate the custom data visualization capabilities of Lucid's Extension API. The scenario for the app is: imagine you manage a multiple rental car lots and want to quickly visualize the cars currently available on each lot. Via a new menu item and a custom modal defined in the app, users can quickly add fake cars and lots (e.g. the data) and then visualize with a single click.
