Starling Bank Bikes Manchester

Starling Bank Bikes Manchester is a dashboard that monitors bike-sharing stations in Manchester in real time and reports analytics about them. The project includes a web frontend and a backend API.

Features

• Live bike and station stats: View availability, utilization, and capacity for each station.
• Interactive map: See station locations and bike distribution.
• Popular-station analytics: Find the most-used and highest-capacity stations.
• Modern UI: Use a responsive interface built with React, Tailwind CSS, and Radix UI.

Get started

Prerequisites

• Node.js and npm
• A Cloudflare account with Workers and D1, for deployment

Develop locally

To run the backend (Worker plus local D1), enter the following commands:

cd worker
npm install
npm run migrate:local   # first time only
npx wrangler dev        # API on http://localhost:8787

To run the frontend, enter the following commands:

cd bike-sharing-dashboard
npm install
npm run dev             # UI on http://localhost:5173, calls the local worker

Deploy

The app runs at cycle.arrakis.house. When you push a change to main that touches worker/ or bike-sharing-dashboard/, the .github/workflows/deploy.yml workflow builds the frontend, applies the D1 migrations, and runs wrangler deploy. The Worker serves the static frontend and the /api/v1 API from the same origin. A 10-minute cron job snapshots the Manchester Beryl General Bikeshare Feed Specification (GBFS) feed into D1.

Technologies used

• Frontend: React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Vite, Radix UI
• Backend: Cloudflare Workers, Hono, D1 (SQLite), TypeScript
