Casita¶

Casita started as a small tool for a time-boxed San Francisco rental search with two large dogs. Searching rental sites by hand was noisy and repetitive, so Casita grew out of necessity: scrape the places, enrich them, rank them, and publish a page that was easier to review than four open browser tabs.

It did its job.

Casita is not a product or service. It is a personal-use tool, published as-is under MIT, and this repo exists for an interview loop. The signal is what a candidate chooses to improve.

The Invitation¶

Fork the repo and make it your own. Pick something you think makes Casita better: a fix, a test, a refactor, a feature, docs, polish, or a simplification, and tell us why you chose it.

The code intentionally keeps the personal-tool shape. Large dogs matter. San Francisco walkability matters. Marin drive times matter. Trails, beaches, and good bakeries matter. Those assumptions are the product.
