FuelFinder is a web app designed to show the cheapest fuel in your area, provided by gov fuel price data. It regularly polls and collects data published on the gov website to show the cheapest fuel stations in your area.
The front end has been developed with a mobile-first approach in React, using Redux, with the microservices created using Go and containerized in Docker. The microservices communicate using gRPC, with a small REST gateway to communicate with the frontend. Any rate limiting is handled by the reverse proxy. The web scraper polls for new data every 15 minutes and indexes the station data in Mongo.
