About The Project

Whereismetro is a Django App for tracking real time arrivals of the Lisbon Metro. Currently has it's basic functionality, allowing the user to check all the stations of each line. Next steps on my plans are making the website look good and responsive, make sure it is accessible to all.

   git clone https://github.com/pearsettings44/whereismetro

2. Install requirements

   pip install -r requirements.txt

To Do

List of things that are still to be developed:

• Make the arrivals time update every X seconds instead of needing to reload the page.
• Make the website look more modern, pretty, responsive and accessible.
• Expand it to also cover some info about CP trains.
