IP Guide – Info on IP addresses, Networks, and ASNs
Hey all, wanted to share my recent weekend hack project. I wanted to improve upon the existing space for looking up information about IP addresses and ASNs. The backend is written in Rust and pulls BGP data every 8 hours from the RIPE RIS project to build up a routing table and also adds geolocation information. The frontend is using React and Tailwind. Would love any feedback or suggestions on what to improve.
In plain words
IP Guide is a tool for looking up information about IP addresses, networks, and autonomous system numbers (ASNs). It uses a Rust backend that pulls BGP routing data every 8 hours from the RIPE RIS project and adds geolocation information. The React-based frontend lets users search and explore network details. The tool is designed for developers and network administrators who need quick access to IP address and routing information.

- BSBGP Scout – BGP Network BrowserJan 2026 · bgpscout.io · ▲27
Hi HN, When working with BGP data, I kept running into the same friction: it’s easy to get raw data, but surprisingly hard to browse networks over time — especially by when they appeared, where they operate, and what they actually look like at a glance. I built a small tool, bgpscout.io, to scratch that itch. It lets you: Browse ASNs by registration date and geography See where a given network appears to have presence View commonly scattered public data about an ASN in one place Save searches to track when new networks matching certain criteria appear All of this data is public already; the…
- PIPerformant intracontinental public transport routing in Rust2024 · github.com · ▲167
I made a public transport route planning program that's capable of planning journeys across Europe or North America! There's only one other FOSS project I know of (MOTIS/Transitous) that can do transit routing at this scale, and in the testing I've performed mine is about 50x faster. I've spent a few weeks on this project now and it's getting to the point where I can show it off, but the API responses need a lot of work before they're usable for any downstream application. Example query (Berlin to Barcelona):…
