MVP

• A user can see the Front page, which has multiple sections for each transit agency with stops nearby.
• A user can see that each section will have the remaining time left until the last train or bus leaves for each nearby line for each nearby stop.
• The user's current location should be used as the reference point for finding the closest stations.

Tech Stack

• Rails API backend
• Mongoid MongoDB driver
• mLab for our database solution and hosting MongoDB
• Heroku for hosting
• GoDaddy for our domain name
• React Frontend
• Bootstrap CSS Framework
