This resource is organized into the following sections:

• Wiki
  • Sandbox Members
    • Contains a page for each Current Sandbox Member and Alumnus in order to maintain appropriate contact information
  • Data Providers
    • Go here to request introductions to data providers
    • Submit and view reviews for each data provider
    • View Product Descriptions and Features
      • Attach relevant documentation and marketing materials
• Code Base
  • Data Provider Code Base
    • Each Data provider folder has three sub-folders:
      • API​: Documentation that references product descriptions in the Wiki
      • Issues​: Solutions to known bugs and references to solutions on StackOverflow
      • Integrations​: Solutions to convert external data sources into useful formats for databases, visualizations, etc...
  • Member's Sandbox
    • A collection of data-provider-agnostic solutions to pressing problems for members in the Sandbox Community
    • Be creative and collaborative here!
  • FinTech Sandbox Scripts
    • Code required to generate specific subsets of this codebase and Wiki
• Slack
  • Some problems we face in launching a startup require communication, not code. For this we have Slack: FinTechSandbox.slack.com
  • Go there to share your company updates, ask for help and help another entrepreneur / data-geek out.
