Products that do what Mapzy: Free, self-hosted store finder does
Hi HN, Mapzy is a free and self-hostable store finder without any telemetry. It's licensed under AGPL v3. Our idea was to offer a very simple store locator that has a basic set of features and is suitable for use cases where you don't have thousands of locations. We don't make any money with Mapzy and probably never will. It's just a fun side project for us to learn and try out stuff, while providing a useful app for people who need it. In the beginning, we offered a hosted version that was paid, but quickly abonened it after realizing we don't have the time or will to market it. Our goal…

http://impromptudo.com is a small project I've been working on. Just a webapp for now but I think it qualifies as an MVP. Also has a mobile version at the same url or http://m.impromptudo.com. Right now it pulls in data from meetup.com for upcoming meetups in several populous cities so it's not just an empty map. You can also click on the map to put up your own post. Trying to stay away from making it all social networky, there are plenty of those already.<p>Finally, I'm not a designer, as you can see.

Backstory: Few years back, I used a shared spreadsheet (GSheets) to organize my property hunt, and found it quite frustrating to keep on top of things just on the productivity side alone. Felt that there should be a better way to do this, and that's when I started creating a webapp, with features that can make this journey feel less stressful. This is a solo dev project. Have a look at the demo, and let me know your thoughts! Cheers

https://shelf-bookmarks.stupidlabs.lol I have been using raindrop.io for years now, and it has worked perfectly for me. Seriously, no issues. But, bookmarks are something that are a bit too personal... they allow profiling you. And I don't want anyone doing that to me, Hence, this app. It's 100% offline and free. It's built in Rust using Tauri, is roughly 6MB only, is beautiful to look at, and packs more features than commercial ones. Make sure to checkout the "All features" page as well from the homepage. Also, it has an inbuilt api server (configurable) so you can automate as…

Hello hackers, I just launched a new MVP It's a todo app using mapped todo lists instead of regular lists ! https://ymappr.com It's bugged and very beta, but I released this complex MVP in only two weeks ! (+ made while relocating from Thaïland to Vietnam, and even while being sick). Needless to say, despite the raw interface, a lot of efforts was put into this. Hope I can give you a feel of what the final product will look like, and I would appreciate some feedback In the meantime, take care! baz

Hello HN! Being a software engineer and an SEO guy I wrote a heap of tools and scripts to make my life easier. Now I've decided to share some of them with the community, and made a small site where I will be publishing them. They are all completely free (yes, free forever) and you don't even need to sign up for the site. Just use the thing as you like, no limits. Currently you can access 4 instruments: - Backlink retriever - Thin/weak content analyzer - Traffic trend analysis - Visitor list retriever I am planning on releasing more free tools with time, and trying to stay original by…

Embeddable map widget for business websites. One script tag, no Google account, no cookies. OpenStreetMap tiles served as Protomaps PMTiles from Cloudflare R2. The whole serving layer runs on edge with no tile server. Infrastructure cost is ~€7/month regardless of traffic because R2 has no egress fees. Built it because Google Maps embeds in Europe are a GDPR headache (cookies, third-party domains, consent barriers), and they show your competitors on your own website.

Hi HN, I wanted to share this simple python app that you can host using App engine and get a free geoip service. It's pretty easy to limit it to the free quota and run without costs. You can't query for a specific IP address but it becomes super useful if you can make that request from the user's side (browser, app, etc). It only has access to lat, long, city, country, ip address but I find those to be the most useful data points. Hope this helps.

I've moved around a lot. Finding information is easy. Finding people is weirdly hard. So I made this — a map where you drop a pin and see who else is around. Filter by digital nomads, freelancers, remote workers, retirees. See if they just arrived or have been there for years. Spot someone interesting? Send a message. No signup. No feed. No tracking. No algorithm. Just a map. More like exploring than scrolling. Built with Next.js, Supabase, and Leaflet.
