Europe Trip

Fun with Google Docs, SmugMug, and some fitness data

Over summer 2022, I went on a trip to Europe with my dad, and during that trip, my dad kept a record of what we did each day in a Google Doc. At some point, I started working on using the Google Docs API to automatically pull information to build a website. Slowly, more sources of data were integrated into the site (fitness data, photos, location checkins), and at the end, the site rebuilt automatically ~once per day, pulling in any new information from the various content sources.

The site is at europe.bentonw.com, but there is more information about how the site actually works at here, and the source code can be viewed on GitHub.
