Installing and running:

Since our project is just an HTML file, you can simply load the file into your browser.
Once you make edits, commit the changes, and push, your changes will be updated on GitHub.

Including in an external Site:

In order to include this project in an existing HTML page you will need to first download the main.css, ui.js, map.js, and data.js files (we don't yet have them on a CDN). Then, you will need to add

<!-- necessary style -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./main.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/leaflet@1.0.2/dist/leaflet.css" />
<script src="https://use.fontawesome.com/07694042f8.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/leaflet@1.0.2/dist/leaflet.js"></script>
<!-- end necessary style -->

to the head tag, as well as

<!-- necessary HTML -->
<div id="ui"></div>
<div id="mapid"></div>
<script src="./ui.js"></script>
<script src="./map.js"></script>
<script src="./data.js"></script>
<!-- end necessary HTML -->

somewhere in the body.

In order to turn on or off default checkboxes, open up map.js, CTRL+F 'DEFAULT_CHECKS', and change a value to false to turn it off by default and true to turn it on by default.

In order to change the default view (currently shipped with weekly data as default) to the past month, week, or day, open map.js, CTRL+F 'DEFAULT_VIEW', and read the documentation. You can change the value to "month", "week", or "day"; anything else will default to weekly data.
