Do I Have Light?

Do I Have Light? is a fast static lookup tool for Ghana load-management schedules. Users can search for an area or use their location to find the likely ECG group and see the related 6-hour light/off-light schedule.

Local usage

Open index.html directly in a browser, or serve the folder locally:

npx serve .

Deployment

This project can be deployed as a static site on GitHub Pages, Netlify, Vercel, or any static host. If deploying to Netlify, keep _headers in the publish root so the security headers are applied.

Privacy

Location lookup runs in the browser. GPS lookup uses the user's browser permission prompt and sends coordinates to OpenStreetMap Nominatim for reverse geocoding. The app does not require account login, server-side storage, or secret environment variables.
