Over the last two months, I developed wanderer. It is a self-hosted alternative to sites like alltrails.com or in other words a self-hosted trail database. It started out more as a small hobby project to teach myself some new technologies but in the end, I decided to develop it into a fully-fledged application.
Core Features:
- Manage your trails
- Extensive map integration and visualization
- Share trails with other people and explore theirs
- Advanced filter and search functionality
- Create custom lists to organize your trails further
- Chique design with a dark and light theme
- Fully mobile compatible
wanderer is completely open-source. You can find the GitHub repo here: https://github.com/Flomp/wanderer
wanderer is still under active development so if you encounter any bugs/errors or have suggestions please let me know here or open an issue on GitHub.
You compared the service to AllTrails, which is a trail exploration and planning app. Like, walk down the trail and follow the map for navigation.
Can you log your trips without an active data connection?
Logging trips offline requires background location services. This does not work for a simple website. You would need to program an app for that. While this is a plan somewhere down the line, it’s still far away. So currently I would recommend relying on an external app to log your trip and import afterwards.
