Overview & Architecture
Amar Pashe is a location-based web application designed to help users discover nearby places such as restaurants, cafes, hospitals, pharmacies, hotels, and supermarkets based on their current location. Users can search for places using keywords or categories, choose a preferred search distance, and explore nearby results with information such as ratings, distance, address, and availability. The application also provides an interactive map with location markers for an easier and more visual way to explore nearby places.
The project was developed using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, with the Geoapify Places API used for nearby place data and the Browser Geolocation API for detecting the user's location. Leaflet.js and OpenStreetMap are used to provide the interactive map experience, while LocalStorage enables users to save favorite places. The project is deployed on Vercel and was built as a practical project to improve skills in API integration, geolocation, interactive maps, frontend development, and real-world web application development.
