I was unhappy that bike share app in my city does not do a good job displaying availability of bikes or docks on the map so I wrote my own web app that gives me color coded availability of bikes and bike docks near my home, my typical destinations, and my current location (geolocation is supported, had to figure out https for it).



I'll go one better, the bike sharing app in my city exposed an API which I scraped for a few weeks and then built a predictor for the nearest stations to work and my home given a certain day, time and station "loading".
