Accomplishment I worked with google maps API, pinpointing the current location of the user and placing it on the map. I used AngularJs and Angular Services to read from a JSon file. Created a dummy array that I used to placed multiple markers on a google map.

What I Learned: How to use Google maps in angularJs. I discovered the difference between AngularJs RouteProvider and Services and on when to use what.

Next Step: Change the dummy array objects with the Json file I read in another part of my angular app. Pass a parameter to the rest api Taewoo built to get a list of courts around current location and place markers on the map.

Thank you
