Introducing Blurr
When creating a new project, tools play an important part in the development process. Because of this, we created Blurr, a package that provides us with a friendly API to make requests in a data wrangling context.
Blurr provides a handful of different options for how we can use it to develop or sketch a new project. It is even useful for quickly wrangling a file without digging into it using Python with Optimus; just a browser and an address are needed to request some transformations.
When using this tool, communication in a Python environment will be handled automatically. All that is needed is an available Jupyter Kernel Gateway address (we'll see more about this later):

By making Blurr available in an endpoint, you'll be able to wrangle your data from any kind of environment using any language that supports HTTP requests, opening a range of possibilities.
