MIT xPro logo Real-Time Bus Tracker | Full Stack Bootcamp Project

Bus Logo Try Demo: https://codetracklift.github.io/bustracker

Skills Utilized:

  1. Languages: HTML, CSS, JavaScript
  2. Asynchronous Functions
  3. API Fetch
  4. DOM Manipulation
  5. Objects and Arrays
  6. Responsive Web Design

About

This was developed during Bootcamp Week 6 and uses data from the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) and Mapbox APIs to show real-time bus locations.

Assignment Objectives:

  1. Generate a map data from the Mapbox API
  2. Fetch data from the MBTA public API
  3. Create map markers based on real time bus locations
  4. Map markers positions should update as real-time locations change

Custom Features:

  1. Color coded map markers
  2. Color coded 'bus lines' list
  3. Last updated timestamp
  4. Refresh countdown timer
  5. Light / dark mode toggle button
  6. Button and map control hover effects
  7. Run button status change to 'Live'
  8. 'OEM' button styling

How to Run

Mode Button

Change the map to 'light' mode (streets-v11) or back to 'dark' mode (dark-v10).

Run Button

Fetch MBTA API data and create bus markers on the map. Once clicked, button is disabled and button text changes to 'Live'. API data is refreshed every 10s.

Map Controls

Notes: See https://docs.mapbox.com/ for mapbox documentation.

Future Roadmap

  • Different marker colors for each bus
  • Include update/refresh data on map
  • Add light / dark mode toggle
  • Make buttons look 'OEM' and responsive
  • Mobile compatible
  • Add color coded 'bus lines' list

This is a progression project, no further development is anticipated.
