-
Main Page: https://github.com/HenryPenton/train_dashboard
*- Git: https://github.com/HenryPenton/train_dashboard
- Licence: MIT
- Dockerfile: Yes (pre-built Docker images available)
- Demo: N/A
-
- Summary: A full-stack application for live train and tube status updates, route planning, and departure information. Built with Next.js for the frontend and FastAPI for the backend, it integrates with Transport for London (TFL) and Real Time Trains APIs to provide real-time data.
-
- Notes: I like this app because it provides a self-hosted, customizable dashboard for monitoring UK public transport, ideal for commuters or enthusiasts who want to avoid proprietary apps. The retro-inspired UI is a nice touch, and it's responsive for use on various devices. Concerns include it being under heavy development, potential bugs, and the need for API credentials from Real Time Trains for full functionality.

I tried creating the above post using AI. The formatting wasn't beautiful, so I retried with AI, asking it to improve the formatting. It didn't get much better.
I shall tidy it up later but am leaving it here for a while so you can see how it looks.
