New York City Public Wifi Finder
Inspired by my AP Computer Science Principles Create Task, this website will allow users to find the nearest public NYC WiFi hotspot. It's a way for me to practice JavaScript, manipulate data, and utilize APIs.

Timeline
Calculated longitude and latitude (plus Pythagorean theorem/distance formula) to find the nearest WiFi hotspot based on NYC dataset. Displays info about the place (place name, WiFi name, and location for now).
Switched APIs from Geocodio to Normantim to not worry about backend and creating an API key. Works the same and can finally move on from getting the longitude and latitude from a location.
I added some simple HTML and CSS (mainly focusing on JS). I got some JS to work with Geocodio API to geocode inputted addresses and convert them to coordinates (longitude and latitude).
