WhereMATA

WhereMATA is a website I'm building as a fun side project. The vague goal is to make it easier to get around the DC Metro area. The website gets all of its data from the WMATA developer API.


I'm building the site using the Go programming language, the Templ templating package, and HTMX. That means I don't have to write any Javascript, which is probably the thing that makes it easiest for me to work on this project in my free time. The website is deployed on Upsun.com, a platform-as-a-service provider that makes it easy to deploy webapps, and which happens to employ me.

WhereMATA is under heavy development.

My plan for this website is to serve realtime data about Metro rail, buses, and hopefully even capital bikeshare. Then, I want to build out the platform to allow for historical analysis of these same transportation methods. Check back soon when I have gotten more of that done!
