The Backstory

Amazon Price Tracker consists of a Node.js Express web server backend, which tracks prices for products on Amazon. Products can be managed in a Vue.js single-page application frontend. Email notifications are sent with Nodemailer, when a product is available at the desired price.

The project is built for use on a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B V1.2. It will probably also run on other Raspberry Pi models, but is not tested. It also runs on other operating systems (Windows 10 tested), but the setup for autostart is different and will not be described here. When the Raspberry Pi is powered up it automatically boots up Amazon Price Tracker and the tool can be accessed by other devices in the same network.

I made the project open source and it is available on GitHub.
