Note 1: The contents of this file and repository may change (for the better) in next few days.

Note 2: This project (the quality of code and result) is in no way the reflection of the kind of software engineer I am or aspire to be. Instead, it reflects my inexperience with Python, Django, HTML, et al.

Project: SF Movies

Problem Statement:

Create a service that shows on a map where movies have been filmed in San Francisco. The user should be able to filter the view using autocompletion search.

The data is available on DataSF: Film Locations.

Solution:

Using Django and Python. I chose it over other web frameworks because it is the preferred choice of OpenTable team.

Visit SF Movies to have a look at the app (beta version). Hovering over the marker will display the details in Movie-Title (Release-Year) @ Location-Name format. Feel free to suggest improvements or to simply have a chat with me ([email protected]).

1. This project is developed on windows 7. I am not sure what changes one needs to make to make it work on other platforms. In any case, feel free to approach me.
2. Make sure that you have installed PostgreSQL and Virtualenv.
