Git Me There

Deployed link: Git Me There

Deployment Date - July 12,2022

The Idea:

Where does one go to get specific detailed information about a travel destination? To prepare for vacation we often ask: Should I rent a car? Can I walk around the city? What are the best restaurants? Where will I stay?

With these questions in mind that any traveler would ask, Git Me There was produced by the Illest Group!

A traveler could visit the Git Me There site, and type in any destination and instantly be given information about transportation and restaurants.

Getting Started:

Any device with access to the internet can use the Git Me There site.

Prerequisites:

Finding APIs that would work with the idea, and with a good amount of availible requests.
