Our project is basically a misleading navigator that takes the used anywhere but the given destination and utilises the user's time with as many detours as possible. Your final destination might be close but never where you intended to go. Be sure to use our app if you have too much time on your hands!

The Useless Wanderer solves the problem of not being able to traverse the longest route between your start and final destination!

Our app gives you the most unnecessary detours and that too in way too many numbers until you reach your destination which will surely not be the one you actually wanted to go!

For Software:

• Languages used: HTML, CSS, JavaScript

• Frameworks used: None (pure JavaScript with Google Maps API)

• Libraries used: Google Maps JavaScript API, Google Maps Places Library, Google Maps Extended Component Library

• Tools used: Visual Studio Code, Git

For Hardware:

• List main components: No specific hardware components required; web application based.

• List specifications: N/A (cloud-based application)

• List tools required: Computer with internet access, Web server for hosting (optional for local testing)

For Software:

• Clone the repository from git.

• Open in Visual Studio Code.

• Open index.html in a web browser.

• Ensure your Google Maps API key is correctly configured in the script tag.

For Software:

This diagram illustrates the application's workflow from user input to map display and routing updates.

For Hardware:

This schematic is not applicable as there are no hardware components.

This section is not applicable for a web-based project.

This video demonstrates the application's functionality, including searching for destinations, starting a journey, and the dynamic routing feature.

No extra Demos. Links to additional documentation or demo videos can be added here.

• Abhijeet Nair: Developed the main application logic, integrated the Google Maps API for geolocation and routing, and implemented the journey management features.

• Harikrishnan B: Designed the user interface, implemented CSS styles for a responsive layout, and created a visually appealing user experience.

• Anusreya Ganesh: Conducted testing of the application, identified and reported bugs, and provided feedback for enhancements to improve overall functionality and user experience.
