About Project

The Internet Speed Finder is a Flask web application that helps users measure their internet speed, including download speed, upload speed, and ping. It uses the speedtest-cli Python library to run the speed tests and displays results on a user-friendly web interface.

Live Demo: Internet Speed Finder

This project is designed with responsiveness and usability in mind, making it accessible on devices of all sizes.

Installation

Prerequisites

Make sure the following are installed:

1. Python 3.10.6: Required to run the Flask application. Download it from Python's official website.
2. Virtual Environment (recommended): To keep dependencies isolated.
3. Flask: Flask is the Python web framework used to handle requests.

Steps

1. Clone the Repository

bash git clone https://github.com/anandsundaramoorthysa/Internet-Speed-Finder.git

1. Navigate to Project Directory

bash cd Internet-Speed-Finder

1. Create a Virtual Environment

This step is recommended to isolate project dependencies.

bash python -m venv venv # On Windows, use `python -m venv venv`

1. Activate the Virtual Environment

• On Windows:

  bash venv\Scripts\activate

• On MacOS/Linux:

  bash source venv/bin/activate

1. Install Required Packages

Run the following command to install the necessary dependencies for the project:

bash pip install flask speedtest-cli

1. Run the Application

Start the Flask application by executing the following command in the terminal:

bash python app.py

After running this command, you can access the application by navigating to http://127.0.0.1:5000 in your web browser.

Use/Run the Project

1. Start the Test: Click on "Start Test" to begin measuring download speed, upload speed, and ping.
2. Retry the Test: After the first results appear, use the "Retry" button to rerun the test.
3. View Results: The results will display download speed, upload speed, and ping once the test completes.

Important Note

Ensure your application has a /speedtest endpoint or equivalent to simulate or fetch speed data. You may use mock data if real-time testing APIs aren’t available.

Features

• Responsive Design: Adaptable layout for various devices.
• Test Speeds: Measures download speed, upload speed, and ping.
• Retry Option: Allows users to rerun the test after results display.
• Loading Animation: Displays spinner and animations during the speed test.
