Build a one page market demand testing application

Photo of app

Often when starting a project it can be hard to determine if there is a real market need for fiber to the home.

Many factors come into play and often an average take rate percentage is just used.

This means that the whole business case rests on build it first and they will come!.

This is a risky approach and can lead to a lot of wasted time and money.

This app was built to help determine the real market demand for fiber to the home.

It is a simple one page app that allows users to enter their address and see if they are in a fiber area.

The app was built using the Mapbox API, FCC BDC data and some customer Python code to process the data.

This is then hosted on fly.io
