This is a variation on the MIT xPro challenge called "Real Time Bus Tracker" I've updated my code to work on a Train system in Chicago (one I personally use). It uses MapBox and JavaScript to point the marker at all the train stops along the route.
Note: this demo requires a Mapbox API key which has been omited for security purposes. I've included a video of it working!
- Node JS
- git clone this repository
- in the root of this project run
npx live-server
- Add an alert to ask the user to put in a MapBox API code to see it working.
- Store the user added API key in localstorage so they don't get asked on each page refresh
