Go nuts and fork it. Improve it to the max yo.
Navigate to the app folder and run npm install. Once everything is aces, run gulp and the app will automatically open in the browser.
To change cities and price, modify the url used for both Kijiji and Craigslist in the path.js file accordingly.
api.cLinks.push('http://toronto.craigslist.ca/search/apa?maxAsk=2000&bedrooms=1&query=' + cStr);
api.kLinks.push('http://www.kijiji.ca/b-1-bedroom-apartments-condos/city-of-toronto/' + kStr + '/k0c212l1700273?price=__2000');
To change the hoods, update the api.hoods array in path.js.
example:
api.hoods = [ 'lakeshore','distillery','queen east','rosedale'];
No way this would even happen without x-ray. Will update the use the new build someday,
In the mean time, get a sweet apartment.
