This app uses undocumented APIs to query search results, this project is experimental. To read more about the APIs, see HACKING.md
Run Flask:
FLASK_DEBUG=True python3 -m flask run
Runs on: Python 3.11, smiles
Implementation: Taking the user's search query, the grocer's individual search API is called. To speed up sending requests, the requests are made in parallel. The users postal code to lat,long coordinates is cached to disk. The data is then formatted and normalized and returned to Flask.
Data is exposed to Javascript on the search results page and then sorted accordingly.
