## What it is
A JSON dataset of COVID-19 confirmed cases, deaths, and recoveries per country as daily time series since January 2020, served over a static URL and updated via GitHub Actions. It transforms data from the Johns Hopkins CSSE repository into an easily consumable JSON format.

## Use cases
- fetch covid-19 case counts per country as json
- build a coronavirus stats dashboard
- plot daily covid deaths and recoveries time series
- get historical pandemic data for data analysis
- feed covid data into grafana or google sheets
- teach a tutorial app to fetch and display covid stats

## When to choose
- you need a simple, no-auth JSON endpoint for COVID-19 time-series data
- you want historical daily data per country in a single fetch
- you're building a visualization, dashboard, or tutorial project

## When to avoid
- you need real-time or guaranteed up-to-date data
- you need granular sub-country (province/state) data
- you need a maintained, licensed dataset for production use - the repo has no license and updates have slowed

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: maintenance
- function: json, data-visualization, analytics
- domain: data-science, healthcare, analytics, time-series
- platform: cli, cross-platform
- tags: covid-19, time-series, json-api, epidemiology, open-data, github-actions, web-server
