About This Project

The Idea

I am Salih Ugur Kimilli, a data engineer who loves turning raw data into insights. This site started life as Superliga Analytics — an end-to-end data engineering project for Danish football, built entirely on free, open-source tools: no vendor lock-in, no cloud bills.

I am from Turkey, and once the pipeline was running for other people's leagues I was curious to point it at my own — to run the same analysis on the Süper Lig and see what it said.

These sites are not standalone projects. Each one is a data product under Krogvad Analytics Hub, sharing a single warehouse and a single nightly pipeline, and the plan for the Hub has always been worldwide.

That's how this site was born.

What Was Built

A fully automated data pipeline that:

• Ingests live match data from Sportmonks and Highlightly into a MotherDuck cloud data warehouse
• Conforms both providers onto shared keys, so a club is one club no matter who reported it
• Transforms raw JSON through Bronze → Silver → Gold layers using dbt
• Serves analytics via this Evidence.dev dashboard, deployed on Vercel
• Runs nightly via GitHub Actions
