Covid Tracking Site

Inspiration

I thought of implementing an API and doing social good. So I thought of making a covid tracking website with flask.

What it does

It basically fetches data from an API link: https://coronavirus-tracker-api.herokuapp.com/v2/locations . It shows the world's status. . It shows the status of the country the user is accessing from. . You Can search for a different country. . It has map data visualization built with Mapbox. . It automatically zooms the map into the country of the user.

How I built it

I built using python flask and jinja templating. And a covid API link: https://coronavirus-tracker-api.herokuapp.com/v2/locations

Challenges I ran into

I ran into problems with JSON data in python.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of
