This year we had a GSOC student.work on a campanion evaluator to https://github.com/simonpoole/OpeningHoursParser (which BTW.is plenty fast enough, not quite sure while you felt the need to do something new), it hadn't been integrated in to anything yet, but I'll be working on that sometime this.month. See https://github.com/goodudetheboy/OpeningHoursEvaluator

You are correct, Valhalla is used for routing. Maps are rendered on the ELEMNT, BOLT and ROAM with mapsforge, BOLT2 with vtm. To look at map files there is cruiser cruiser (mapsforge) and cruiser-gl (vtm). Create updated maps with wahooMapsCreator. There is also some documentation how to add POI's or make a custom theme.
Marak, the guy behind the recent breaking of faker.js, colors.js, etc., claims that it was a "programming mistake" and wants Github to unban him.
