24 alternatives to I made a little tool to practice country positions on the world map
Hi HN, I built a little tool to help me get better at remembering country locations on the map: https://learn-worldmap.netlify.app/ It's made from plain HTML/CSS/JS, and not intended to make any money or anything. Just thought that maybe someone else may enjoy it. Also of course happy about any feedback! Cheerz.
This tool helps users practice and improve their knowledge of country locations on the world map. Built with plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, it offers an interactive way to learn geography through repetition and… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

Hi HN, I made a web game to practice country locations a while ago and HN liked it, so I thought I'd post my updated version as well. As for how the game works and feels, I'd really recommend you checking it out for yourself, it's free, no signup, no ads. The tech stack is Vue + ts + Tailwind/Daisy for the looks. The learning algorithm is a slight modification of the ts version of FSRS. If you have anything to add, it's open source as well (https://github.com/koljapluemer/learn-worldmap), although not well documented yet. In the end it's just a little sideproject,…

I have always loved geography, and due to my childhood interest in football, I learned a lot of country flags. A lot, but not all of them! So, I decided to make a free game for anyone who enjoys flags and wants to improve their knowledge. You can compete against others because each game is timed. Have fun!

MapScroll▲109Hi HN, I built this after getting frustrated trying to map out things like “Ancient mayan ruins” or “James Bond movie locations” on Google "My" Maps. You basically have to drop pins manually, hunt down photos, copy links, it’s slow and never feels like an actual story. With MapScroll, you just type something like “Marco Polo’s route” or “forgotten WWII sites in France”, and it geocodes, grabs images + articles, and plots everything into a shareable story map. Each marker comes with a little gallery and sources tied to your prompt. You can also refine the first draft which AI creates before…

Hi! Thanks again for all the great feedback on my earlier post. I’ve added a lot since then and wanted to share an update. I’m also very open to more ideas or criticism. For anyone who hasn’t seen it yet, TrueSize.net is an interactive tool that lets you visualize and compare the real size of countries on a world map and globe (without Mercator distortion). What’s new: - Support for 140k+ regions, provinces, states, and territories - not just countries. - Many regions now include population, area, and short descriptions. - Official mobile apps on iOS and Android (links are on the site,…

Hey HN, I really enjoy learning about other countries' landmarks, culture, capitals, and more, so I decided to make a simple quiz/trivia game about geography for fun. :) Currently, there are 3 quizzes available: flags, capitals, and landmarks, with more to come soon. I would love to hear your feedback! Thanks.

For a game I'm developing I needed an easy way to create hotspot areas on images. So I hacked together a small tool to do so and before I knew it, I had created an entire app :-) It allows you to generate JSON or YAML from the coordinates you tack on the image. tack runs entirely in your browser, there is no server side component to it, so good in terms of privacy. Hope this is helpful.

We built Maptoolkit.org - a free, production-grade vector maps service built on OpenStreetMap and MapLibre. Map rendering and tile hosting have historically been either expensive (Google, Mapbox) or complex to maintain yourself. (Plus: Their maps are car-focused.) Our maps feature max data zoom 15, global hill-shading, 3D terrain, contour lines, water depths, and specialized styles (like Hiking, Cycling, Winter). No sign up or API keys required. You can use it like this: ``` const map = new maplibregl.Map({ container: 'map', style: 'https://styles.maptoolkit.org/summer.json',…

We’re thrilled to announce PlaceKit, a worldwide geocoding API and toolkit! It’s the successor of Algolia Places, a discontinued product. Nico (my co-founder) and I worked at Algolia for 3 and 6 years respectively before launching PlaceKit. Unlike big competitors Google Places and Mapbox, it’s a single REST API, with a unique and transparent per-request pricing. PlaceKit combines OpenStreetMap, local datasets and the Algolia engine into a unique sub 50ms worldwide address search. We’ve made our JS libraries from scratch to make them lightweight, customizable, and compatible with any stack.…

I made this because I wanted a page on the internet that shows the countries/cities I have been to. In addition to a profile page that shows a map and list of the locations, you can also embed the map to any website with an iframe tag.
