Crave it? Find it. Instantly. Street Bites maps the food trucks rolling through your city — live locations, menus, cuisines, and open-right-now hours.
How does Street Bites keep the truck locations accurate when vendors move spots on a whim or dont update their schedule, and do drivers have to manually check in or does the app pull from something like a pos system?
@necdet654042 I purpose built the app so that a user can open, close, and set a pin on a whim, so if someone gets an itch to uproot it is only a moment. Future GPS tracking is a potential, bit probably a separate app that drops data to the site to keep our pages lean and clean. I'm going to get some vendor suggestions and may set this up if it is not cost prohibited.
The live filtering by what's actually open right now is such a smart call, nothing worse than chasing a truck across town only to find it packed up. Love the focus on real-time accuracy over flashy extras.
@ezels5ii thanks. The goal is to make it very lean and fast. Maps are cached and pins filter by cuisine too, so does search. Trying to really focus on the 'find it now' thought process. No massive scroll.
love how the live map shows which trucks are actually open. one thing though, a route planner that strings together multiple trucks in one walk would be clutch for food crawls with friends. could even surface a suggested order based on distance
@ferhat186901 you're not wrong. I'm going to go walk the pavement and get some real world suggestions from truck vendors. This is a potential future feature.
The live location tracking feels genuinely snappy, not the laggy map refreshes you usually see with this kind of app. Love that it pulls menus right alongside it too, no extra taps needed.
@remg3bj thanks. It was a labor of love... and good well thought out architecture. ;)
How does it actually get the live location data from the trucks — is it GPS hardware they have to buy, or just something pulled from their social media check-ins?
At the moment, there is a single click for an authenticated user to set a pin. There is a potential future feature where we set active GPS tracking, but we are limited until we create some kind of mobile app. Having a click set is also required to mark a truck as 'open' as opposed to maintaining a schedule for the truck. This allows a truck to quickly close, move position, and reopen on the fly.
