This is a simple microservice originally intended to be embedded in https://github.com/NYCPlanning/labs-zola. It merely serves out an HTML page containing the Cyclomedia Javascript Application configured to whatever parameters specified in the route. It uses the Jade templating syntax.
- Cyclomedia - Provides interactive street imagery
- None yet - we should have ESLint setup at some point to clean up the Javascript. Testing would be nice, but this is an unconventional app with low complexity.
App can be deployed through git pushing it to a Dokku app.
