To support real-time wait times, allow for input from those actually inline #16

Average wait times is not particularly useful. The key is data that is no more than 60 minutes olde.

While the longer term solution would be a smartphone app, a short term fix would be a web site that is "responsive"/optimized for smartphone where someone who has finished their "wait" in line can input the time and location of the store.

Hi, thank you for your feedback.

This morning I released this feature: image

The idea behind it is the same: get a real feedback from who is in the line. Actually the website is responsive and provide also a PWA (=Progressive Web App).

An application need to be updated to get all these features, meanwhile a Web App no. In the next future an App would be probably the best fit for this project, as you also said.

Now I'm developing a lot of feature and I need to get a lot of feedback and for these reason I think that the web is the right choice.
