Mission-to-Mars
In this project, I am using HTML Web scraping on Mars data to create a Flask web application usig MongoDB, Python, & CSS
Overview
Mission to Mars is a project that uses HTML Webscraping in a python script that scarpes the latest Mars information and images through varipus websites. In doing this project I created a interesting Flask web appication that protrayed an HTML template designed using Bootscrap to display all the data in a web location without having to manually gather information various websites. The data was scraped and stored in a Mongo database that stored the data and than was displayed in the Flask web application. Futhermore, I was able to connect the scrapig script so that each time the "Scrape New Data" button was clicked, I would recieve the latest infomation regarding Mars. Lastly, by using the Bootstrap's grid system I was able to create a web app that displayed Mars latest information on any device people view it from.
