AirAble

🌱 Inspiration Air pollution silently affects millions every day — especially in cities 🌆. As athletes 🏃, families 👨‍👩‍👧, and health-conscious individuals 💚, we realized most apps show data, but don’t tell you what to do. We wanted a solution that guides people to make healthier, smarter decisions in real time — and that’s how AirAble was born. 💡🌍

🧩 Challenges we ran into Making complex air data easy to understand and act on Designing clean route-finding that actually works with real AQI input Balancing real-time data with performance ⚡ Crafting personalized health advice for diverse user types
