Buoys

This is my 1st attempt at making an iOS icon. Done on the train to Sydney with an iPad app called Procreate, then finished in Photoshop. It's for a little mobile web-app I've been building for realtime buoy data for the coast of NSW, Australia.

I began by writing a little node module for parsing the MHL's graphs. Then I built a little node app which fetches data from the graphs hourly, stores it in Redis and provides access via a little API. On top of that API I've built an Angular app. All the code is available on Github: npm module, app.

Keen to see where this leads :) For the past couple of weeks I've been using it, yay no more ugly gif graphs! Hopefully the MHL don't get upset.
