Along the Way

About The Site


  • Along the Way is an interactive website that allows the user to input a destination and find restaurants or weather after selecting a route. It is best used when you select a route and click somewhere along/near the route to find places that are not out of the way. The webpage uses remote API data to populate a list of potential places you might want to visit if you're planning a road trip.

Built With


Languages:

  • HTML
  • CSS
  • Javascript

APIs:

  • Google Maps API
  • Google Places API
  • Google Geocaching API
  • Rapid API (weather)

MVP (Minimum Viable Product)


  • Designing a webpage to handle all of the data we need from our APIs
  • Responsive design
  • Entering location info into the input fields will populate Google maps routes between both locations
  • Local restaurant or gas station data is found wherever you click on the map after you input directions
  • Weather data is found for the end destination

Stretch Goals Completed


  • Actually retrieving Google API data and getting a map to work on our webpage
  • Getting waypoints to show up on map when you click on it
  • Clicking on card makes map pin highlight and jump
  • Buttons don't stack info, i.e. clicking on restaurants after clicking on weather will override the weather and make it disappear, only showing restaurants

Future Stretch Goals


  • Making a button for gas stations to display gas info in cards
  • CSS could look better
  • Adding more functionality, i.e. retrieving more info on locations, clicking a pin on the map scrolls you down to the card, etc.
