README
We built a listing of executive branch agencies and individual agency pages using the Federal Register API. This includes agency pages with:
- Agency logo, description and website
- Subagencies within the agency
- Recent agency Federal Register documents
Data
Data used for this project:
- Federal Register API (U.S. National Archives and Records Administration)
Issues
Issues we found using the API:
- Agency logos are poor quality.
- Agency data (about, website) is inconsistent, needs copyediting or is empty.
Kudos
Big kudos to the National Archives for:
- Maintaining a public repository of the data.
