Bixi-around

A simple api to know the closest Bixi bike stations from your location. It allows you to choose the best station according to your needs (classic or electric bike, parking slot).

I only tested it for the city of Montreal 🇨🇦. But, the data streams are based on the GBFS standard, so it's theoretically possible that it also works in the following cities 👉 https://github.com/MobilityData/gbfs/blob/master/systems.csv

Usage/Examples

TODO link to the Apple Shortcuts to integrate it with Siri.
