This is a project I completed as a student at hackreactor.

Heading

Goolp - aggregate restaurant reviews from Google && Yelp

Sub-Heading

This is a great tool for anyone that is hungry and is looking for the best place to eat.

Techstack

AngularJS, ExpressJS, Node.JS, Yelp API, Google Places API, annyang! (speech recognition library)

Summary

Online restaurant reviews tend to vary across different websites. Imagine this: you look up a specific restaurant on Yelp and see that it has 3 stars overall. Then you look up the same restaurant on Google Maps. It has 4.3 stars overall. Confusion takes over and you don't know which website to trust. Goolp solves this issue by returning an aggregate restaurant review overall count (Yelp + Google) in order to help you make an informed food-cision.

Problem

Solves the problem of different websites showing different reviews for the same place. (Ex. Restaurants). Goolp gets the reviews from the different websites and shows you a combines review count.

Solution

Get the aggregate review count in one place! Just enter your location, restaurant name/cuisine and see the results right away!
