What is Locality?

Locality provides reliable sources of local news in order to combat misinformation. The first step is to enter your City, and just like that, your job is done. From there, we aggregate local news stations around you, and display them on a beautiful grid.

Locality uses an API that aggregates local news stations, and neatly arranges them on a webpage.

How Was Locality Built?

We built Locality using React and a hint of Python-Flask for the backend. As for the news, we fetch search results under the news category via the Zenserp API.

What's Next for Locality?
