Notes

This project started as a joke idea after my database class and turned into a quick experiment. It’s far from perfect. The initial load is slow, there’s minimal filtering, and the data handling could be improved a lot. That said, it was a fun way to apply what I’d just learned and see the limits of a rough, first-pass implementation.
