saltymill VS graphhopper-maps

First, my remark is about the impact on the adoption of OpenStreetMap in general, not my personal usage of it.

And second - it did not stop me from doing that, but it was extremely difficult, and took months of effort. I built a tool to set up a server with all the components required to download the data, load it into PostGIS, style it with Tilemill and generate and serve tiles: https://github.com/stevage/saltymill

So I find your comment quite disingenuous.

I built something along the same lines many years ago, with routing but not geocoding.

Yeah, it's a pain in the arse getting all the bits together. And I wasn't attempting full planet scale.

Unlike most OSM apps it requires an internet connection but has the advantage of an address search with auto complete and alternative routes.

Or use the website https://graphhopper.com/maps/ (disclaimer: I'm one of the founders of GraphHopper)

Both come with a custom model editor (gear button in the top left) where you can tweak the routing preferences to your liking like prefering more the official bike routes or more elevation avoidance or a slower speed etc.

https://graphhopper.com/maps/ is an amazing product that is open source, but it just does routing (with GPX download). I wish it had a little PostGIS data browser that I could write into via routes I draw on the map, or I upload (or import from other devices using something like GarminDB or similar). That, and adding arbitrary points, would be great. Just a simple, general-purpose map authoring tool. I just feel like I'm missing something, it seems like this would exist already.

Graphhopper. It has an Android client that uses its web service. You can also try out the web app.

Yes. Try it out at https://graphhopper.com/maps/

Open Source. The routing server is open source too and geocoding too.

GraphHopper might be an option as well.

Note that you can always submit a feature request here: https://github.com/graphhopper/graphhopper-maps/issues

I'm always on the lookout in this category. I prefer the KISS principle and avoid subscription bleeds. Recently found GraphHopper with a web interface and a Droid app.

There is even an experimental in-browser turn-by-turn navigation feature, which you can use with your local graphhopper service, but on a laptop you probably have no GPS and you have to use it from a phone (see the identical f-droid app for this purpose).
