Sandwiches are my passion. When the New York Times unveiled its list of 57 sandwiches that define New York City, I wanted to try them all. The problem: the NYT list only provides sandwich names and restaurant addresses. Determining if I’m near an iconic sandwich requires scrolling, reading, and flipping between the list and Google Maps. The solution: I need a sandwich map!
In this workshop, rather than just traditional coding, we’ll use a large language model (LLM) as a pair programming partner to help us tackle challenges, offer suggestions, and streamline the development process. By the end, you’ll know how to combine basic Python coding with web scraping, Google Maps, and GitHub Pages.
