Have you ever wanted to see what your crypto holdings are worth right now, in one simple spreadsheet? I'll show you how to do just that in 6 lines of code.
In Part 1 of this multipart tutorial series, we'll create a custom function in Google Sheets, take a look at the documentation for Binance, talk about some of the tools, like Postman, that can help code for an API much more efficiently, and discuss some of the ways a simple "Get average price of Coin X" function can be used.
**Additional tutorials (coming soon):**
* Part 2: Adding the Bittrex and Coinbase APIs to Google Sheets
* Part 3: Expanding beyond the "Get Spot Price" endpoint
* Part 4: Whether to code in Google Sheets, or migrate to Node and React (and Mongo)
* Part 5: Authenticating to access personal wallet balances
* Part 6: Exploring placing trades via API

In this series, we'll be designing a business intelligence dashboard using React and the Google Charts API.
In the first lesson, we'll quickly get our environment up and running with Webpack and create-react-app, and then dive right into the code. We will use an asynchronous function to "preload" the Google Charts API, then create and populate the DataTable, before moving on to drawing a TableChart using ChartWrapper in the next video.
