mbta
My first ever little web app is live!
Trackmbta.app is a web app that can be "installed" on mobile devices. Like its name, it tracks MBTA trains so you can be smarter for your trips!
Features are:
- Live count down
- Live location of trains on the map (just in case you're curious where that damn train is that you're waiting forever...)
- Save your favorite stations locally for quick access
This web app cuts all the bullshit:
- No permission asked
- No data collected from you
If you are a red line commuter and see a ✨ on the app, you probably already know what it means! Those shiny new trains!
