WVCams now lives at wvcams.com with faster pages, county directories, live delay summaries, and easier sharing—plus an embed guide for developers.

What’s new

  • New domain: WVCams is now at https://wvcams.com (the old https://wvcam.lukeshort.dev still works).
  • County pages: Clean, linkable pages like /county/putnam so you can jump straight to your area.
  • Traffic delays: A simple page that surfaces current incidents with county filtering—great for a quick pre-drive check.
  • Blog: Short posts (like this) for updates, tips, and outage notes at /blog.
  • Better navigation: A cleaner desktop navbar and tidier layout on both phone and desktop.
  • Easy sharing: Each camera has a clear “Share” option to copy a direct link.

Performance & reliability

  • Faster first load: Server-rendered pages mean quicker first view, especially on slower connections.
  • Leaner pages: Smaller bundles and general cleanup to keep things snappy.

For developers

  • Embeds: See /embed for a drop-in snippet and notes on adding a live camera to your own site or dashboard.
  • Tips: The page also lists a few URL options and best practices.
