Mares de Portugal

A simple website that shows the tides of the Portuguese coast.

The website is built with Laravel and Tailwind CSS.

Why?

• The existing websites are not user-friendly and are confusing to navigate.
• Sometimes you just want to know the tides of a specific location and if it's tide is rising or falling.
• There was no clean way to check the moon phase as well.
• To learn and practice Laravel and Tailwind CSS.

Check the website live: https://mares.varandas.io, analytics are available at https://analytics.varandas.io/mares.varandas.io.
