Mapiq
This is similar to Google MyMaps. I wanted something more polished, collaboration enabled and fast (I love building multiplayer apps). Think of it like Excalidraw + maps. As a digital nomad, I have different collections of cafes, shops, random notes that I want to put on maps. You can even share your live location with collaborators. Feel free to play around. Choose Guest to avoid sign-up. If you want to build something similar on your own - yjs, maplibregljs, openfreemaps for tiles. Cheers.

What it does
Collect places on custom maps and share them with the people you plan with. Pin cafes, neighborhoods, real-estate prospects, etc. - optionally invite others to build the map together, see each other on it, and attach notes to anything. One browser tab, no install.
Create custom maps for trips, collections, real estate, prospecting, and research in your browser.
Make your own unique maps for collections, trips, real-estate, prospecting etc. Turn places into a visual collection you can scan and explore. Participants can choose to share their live location. Everyone appears together on the map. Handy for field ops and meetups. Share the space so collaborators can see the same map, leave notes, and build the collection together. Draw shapes, place text and markers, sketch freehand, and share your location. Build collections for trips, properties, field research, prospecting, or just your favorite spots. Yes. Click any marker or shape and add a name and notes right on the item. They stay with it. For longer documents, open Paperly in the same space.…from supakit.app

A website that heatmaps your city based on your housing preferences2025 · theretowhere.com · ▲321For the past few months, I've been working on a website that answers two different questions: - Where in my city have the best travel times to all the things and people I care about? - Given a listing, how far is it from all the things and people I care about? Personally this was fueled by my own frustrations when I was apartment hunting in NYC. I was frustrating to have to juggle so many Google Maps tabs when I was evaluating a listing, and it was also annoying to not have full confidence that I was even searching in the right places. I wanted to be close to work, a Trader Joe's, and a…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
