A project aimed at consuming the Where is ISS? api to track the current position of International Space Station.

ISS Tracker

This project aims to create a website which tracks the live position of the Internation Space Station using this API.

Issues:

• Call the api to get data and print it in console.
• Explore option in Leaflet.js docs to make map more interactive.
• Center the div containing the map.
• Add styling and css to the page to make it look better.
• Add a pointer to the map based on a location.
• Call the API every 3 seconds and update the pointer position to make the space station look like its moving.
• Change the default pointer icon to ISS png image (any image will work 15*15 px).

Feel free to raise any more issues or add more features to the project. You can even update this readme file and make it look better.
