This is a simple Go/Gin web app to display a gallery of the various National Park Service webcams as discovered through the NPS API. This is a recreational programming project that I thought would be useful and fun to explore.
I've hosted the application publicly using Railway:
https://npswebcams-production.up.railway.app/
An API key can be obtained from the NPS Developer Resources "Get Started" page.
export NPS_API_KEY=<your key>
go run .Then visit http://localhost:8080/ in your browser.
The dataset is very small and currently stored in memory. The NPS API is used on app startup and then every 30 minutes to dynamically refresh the data.
