02Using the Data
Free to reuse
Everything here is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0). Copy it, change it, and use it commercially, as long as you credit DaveManuel.com with a link.
Addresses that do not change
Every file keeps the same address, for example /datasets/national-debt-daily.csv. Spreadsheets can import it directly (in Google Sheets: =IMPORTDATA("https://www.davemanuel.com/datasets/national-debt-daily.csv")) and stay current.
For developers and AI tools
A machine-readable list of every dataset, with column names, units, sources and dates, is at /datasets/index.json.
The underlying government figures are public records. The credit asks for the compilation: the cleaning, matching and the way the files are put together.
03How to Credit and Cite
