I wanted to build a tool to help people decide when and where to travel. As I started building, I realized that "when" and "where" need separate treatment to be most useful. The map tool handles "where" best: https://championtraveler.com/travel-weather-map/ Clicking through each week would be frustrating for those who know where they want to travel but not when. For these people I built "best time to travel" pages using the same data. https://championtraveler.com/best-time-to-travel/ My hope is this site will help travelers plan. This data is taken…

Hello HN, I live in northern part of USA where winters are snowy. Whenever I took long trips, I always wondered what the weather along the route is going to be. For those who live in northern USA, you know weather can change frequently, so when you're traveling matters a lot, not just the route. To solve this problem for myself, I built https://navimodo.com/. NaviModo calculates the route, and then checks weather along the route based on your start time, and displays weather along the route. Change start time, and the whole thing is recalculated. I am not expecting any…

I shared this a little while ago. Since then, I've implemented some feature requests and added a small weather widget. There are also static pages for major cities if you prefer not to use the location-based version. e.g., https://sunrisewhen.com/new-york I know most phones and browsers already provide this kind of info, but it's a fun little project I enjoy keeping alive. cheers

Is anyone having a big wedding reception/event with assigned seating soon? Or know anyone who will? I've been working on a tool to optimize seating charts for assigned seat events, such as weddings. I'm hoping this site will save people enough time and stress, to charge for the service for larger events. At the moment, there's no login required, and the service saves no data. Why? * Save time, rearranging people automatically * Help with politics of large gatherings * Try moving people and quickly seeing how everything shakes out Currently, it will try to optimize for: * Keeping groups…

I love the sunlight and dread the long, dark winter evenings of Northern Europe. I often look up sunrise / sunset times and count off the days until the darkness is gone. Now I've written a terminal app for this (Mac/Linux) Features: a colorful summary of daylight times for your location; projected change over the coming days; handles NO_COLOR and a ---short flag if you dislike the output format. The location is IP-based but you can override this if you're on a VPN. Just create a terminal alias with the --loc flag. The app supports areas in the arctic / antarctic circle too.…

Last year, I went to a game at a stadium I had never visited (Arrowhead). Ended up baking in the sun for the entire second half. Afterwards, was surprised I couldn't find a tool that told me where the sun would actually be during games. So for WC2026 I built SeatSun: a free tool (no sign up needed) that calculates sun/shade exposure for every section at the World Cup 2026 stadiums depending on date and match time. The technical core: solar azimuth and altitude calculations (based on Meeus astronomical algorithms, ~0.3 degree accuracy) tied to each stadium's orientation and GPS…
