Ask HN: Share Your Side-Project
I have been working for a few years now on Exomind[1], a personal knowledge management tool that takes the form of a unified inbox in which you can have your emails, tasks, notes and bookmarks organized into collections. I have iOS and web/electron clients at the moment and a simple browser extension for bookmarking.
Its backend (Exocore[2]) is built on top of a personal / private blockchain and is made from the ground up to be hosted in a semi-decentralized fashion on your own personal devices (your computer, raspberry pi, a cloud instance, etc.). It is written in Rust and has iOS, C and Web (WASM) clients. It's extensible via WebAssembly written applications.
It has very rough edges, but I'm using it daily to organize my life. It has also been my learning playground to improve my Rust skills over the last two years (it was on another tech stack before).

Do you have programming skills? MapboxGL JS is a great library for stuff like this, you can really easily add a layer of GeoJSON data to a map. If you're looking for something less technical Google map lets you create custom maps where you can add a bunch of pins.

Experimenting with Mapbox GL JS's upcoming globe projection
From the latest commits (not released/stable yet): git clone https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-js.git yarn install yarn run build-prod-min yarn run build-css Then use the generated mapbox-gl.js and mapbox-gl.css files. See CONTRIBUTING.md for more details.

Reimagining projections for the interactive maps era
> too bad it doesn't come with some code
Mapbox changed the license of their code last year I think to a proprietary one. https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-js/blob/main/LICENSE.txt
It requires a mapbox user license with billing enabled to use this code, let alone make modifications. But the source is viewable on github.

MapLibre GL is a free and open-source fork of mapbox-gl-JS
The software stopped being open source from v2 onwards. The new licence makes it merely shared source.
This GitHub issue where this change is announced provides a number of more in-depth explanations why this is a bad thing for most users of the software: https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-js/issues/10162
