This web application, written in Elm, simplifies the process of planning delivery routes. It was initially developed for Cevi Hombi, an organization that organizes an annual event around Christmas where customers can order homemade Zopf to be delivered.
Created for fun and as a means to learn Elm, this application does not guarantee high quality and lacks tests and translations.

Example data is hardcoded. Replace it as needed.
Access the web application at the provided link and follow the process using the example data. Here you find the sample output of the delivery routes from the example data.
Each step is described in more detail below.
Begin planning by entering the required information:
 |
|---|
The following columns are required:
- Strasse
- Ort
- Lieferzeit
Additional columns will appear in the output, such as phone numbers or notes. However, limit the amount of information to ensure proper formatting on the output A4 pages (landscape).
Coordinates are fetched using the Nominatim API, throttled to one request every two seconds.
 |
|---|
If coordinates are not found, correct the address or enter them manually.
 |
|---|
Configure the number of drivers and headquarters coordinates for deliveries.
 |
|---|
The application assigns deliveries to drivers, creating a delivery route for each driver within their respective delivery windows. Visually review and adjust the generated routes as needed by clicking on the corresponding delivery points on the map. Note that the application clusters deliveries by location, without calculating actual routes, which may result in non-optimal or illogical routes (e.g., caused by dead ends or lack of connecting streets).
 |
|---|
On the final page, print the delivery route for each driver. Use the browser's print page functionality (best results in landscape format).
