Power BI story - an experiment using a dashboard and little animation to tell a story with Microsoft's free BI tool. Elements of it worked, but it's still hard to create a polished experience with this platform. Process notes here. Apr '19

Animated heatmap showing housing affordability in England. This was a mashup of data from the house price index and ONS annual survey of hours and earnings.
