April 30, 2024 How I built a useable app in under 2 hours

I recently moved locations, and one of the things on my todo list was to find a new dentist. I called up my health care provider, and they gave me a list of 100 dentists, along with their addresses.

Instead of checking each manually I decided to make a next.js app. I added one API route to geocode an address, had ChatGPT generate some frontend code, and wallah! Deploy to vercel, and connect a domain.

Sometimes you don't need accounts, dashboards, and the whole nine yards.

Why can't we just make useful things for fun, and release them for free?

After trying to find the closest dentist to my home from a list of 100 addresses, I made this tool out of desperation.
