  • agloe

    📍 Agloe is a geocoder which combines Go with WebAssembly in order to parse highly compressed Open Street Map (OSM) files all in the browser.

    • Now the important stuff: You can play around with it here: agloe.vercel.app and view the source code on GitHub here. Do note that there is Google Analytics running on the vercel hosted link, so be advised (I'm a very curious person).

  • maplibre-gl-js

    MapLibre GL JS - Interactive vector tile maps in WebGL2

    • Map: Maptiler & Maplibre are responsible for the beautiful map that you see. I did want to create my own headless tiler, but that seems like an even bigger project on its own.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • pbf2json

    An OpenStreetMap pbf parser which exports json, allows you to cherry-pick tags and handles denormalizing ways and relations. Available as a standalone binary and comes with a convenient npm wrapper.

    • Pelias: An inspiration for this project came from pelias/pbf2json, if you like maps & open source stuff, definitely check out pelias.
