Show HN: I built a app for my mother

Pasting the Why url contents here: Borivali railway station had 6 platforms in this manner physically. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Then we got platform 7 and 8 which made it like this. 8 7 1 2 3 4 5 6

So a person staying in Borivali East who would board a train going to platform 8 or platform 7 will have to walk the full length of 7 or 8 then climb steps or use subway all the way from 1 to 6. Certain people liked platform 7 and 8 as this was closer to catching a bus or rick or just close to their home. Either way it was both good and bad.

The problem was the railway folks started announcing this when the train arrives at Malad or Kandivali, two stations before Borivali, even though the schedule is really fixed and does not change frequently. My mother travels everyday from Borivali-Dadar-Borivali for her job. It would be very irritating for her to get down at Malad or Kandivali, if a particular train would go to platform 7 or 8, as she has health issues esp. knee joints. We are dealing with rush to first board a train and then a rush to get down one station before your destination, too much to ask for from a women approaching 50 in my opinion. So I built this for her. I built a mobile app for her nokia phone. I coded a quick html/js page which I transferred on her phone via usb cable and then just opened it in the browser. It does not need internet. Now she's using it and suggested that I should put this up as few more people might find it useful. So here it is Borivali platform 7 and 8 app. I hope you find it useful.
