Hobby project that aims to explore and visualize the extensive transport services provided by VVS (Verkehrs- und Tarifverbund Stuttgart) in the Stuttgart region. By leveraging interactive maps and real-time data, the application offers users a way to navigate the public transportation network. Key features include detailed route search between stops, visualization of transport lines and stations, and information on arrivals and departures.

The application features an interactive map displaying detailed line and station information for the public transportation system. Key highlights include:
- Map Visualization: The map showcases various transport lines (U-Bahn, S-Bahn, Bus, Trains, Zacke, Cablecar (Seilbahn)) with distinct colors and icons for easy differentiation.
- Interactive Filters: Users can toggle the visibility of different transport modes using checkboxes, allowing for a customized view.
- Station Markers: Each station is marked with a clear icon, and clicking on a station reveals additional information, such as the station name and connected lines.
- Line Details: The lines are plotted on the map, showing the routes they follow and connecting the corresponding stations.
The application provides a comprehensive route search feature that allows users to find the best routes between two stops. Key features include:
- Journey Options: The application displays multiple journey options, each detailing the departure and arrival times, total travel duration, and the transport lines involved.
- Map Visualization: The selected route is clearly plotted on the map, showing the exact path and connections between the stops.
- Interactive Elements: Users can toggle between different transport modes using the filters to customize the view and see the available routes for the selected transport modes.
- Detailed Information: Each journey option provides detailed information about the lines and stops, helping users choose the most convenient route.
