Showcases the user the recycling centers in Texas.
How we built it
We used the Google Maps API, CSS , JavaScript, and HTML. We also had to pin point most of the recycling centers with coordinates and manually added them one by one in JavaScript.
Challenges we ran into

Accomplishments that we're proud of

What we learned
We learned about team work and communication. We also learned to make sure to allow ourselves to take breaks/time-off , in order, to stay away from being burnt-out and
What's next for Texas Recycling Center Locator
We will probably just improve the functionality of the website. Making look a lot more welcoming and fun to look at.
