Cool! Made me want to try building it in Quadratic because you can tie the live data source into the spreadsheet.

I didn’t use the more comprehensive dataset in big query [1] and I didn't use the firebase API [2] either because it's so much data to go through. Instead I used the Algolia search API [3] because it was easy ha.

The resulting charts [4] are, if nothing else, interesting to look at and on first glance similar to what I see in the og google sheet.

Disclosure: I work on Quadratic and this was a good exercise in using the product (and finding bugs). The spreadsheet is available to look at publicly [5]
