Bart2d2 - Realtime BART Depatures
-
Bart2d2 is a personal project I started while at HackReactor in San Francisco, but have continued to improve and maintain. It provides realtime BART route and departure information. I found that many similar services felt cluttered and slow. I decided to build a fast, intuitive interface and cut out the clutter. Currently Bart2d2 is built using AngularJs, NodeJs and ExpressJs.
