Route Finder

Inspiration:

I wanted people to find a safe way to walk home or to walk somewhere by showing them a visual of the routes.

What it does:

It basically takes OpenStreetMap's API and takes user input from the location and destination, and connects a line between the two points, allowing the users to see a safe route between the two. Works for travelling on a plane as well.

How I built it:

Implementing an API into the website, with using the python file as the backend and the HTML file as the frontend.

Challenges I ran into:

API bugging, error codes coming up.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of:

Building the program in general and writing the HTML code. I knew nothing about HTML last night.

What I learned:

How to implement an API and use it to connect two points.

What's next for Route Finder:

Allowing the route finder to show curves and turns on streets, like google maps
