a webapp for parsing .fit files

Crash course in Flask, Bokeh, Heroku for webapp dev in python¶

I made a webapp to parse .fit files, which are the raw data Garmin watches generate. The app shows you sample data recorded by your device, and attempts to plot stuff too.

web app link: here¶

If all goes as planned, you'll be taken to https://dmrflaskapp.herokuapp.com, and be shown the "Hello!" prompt. It might take a few seconds for the Heroku server to start up (I'm on the free tier, so it goes to sleep after 30min of inactivity)
