I'm a big fan of QGIS, but doing stuff browser side is just _terribly_ convenient (I also never got anything 3D to work on my M2 Mac with QGIS, but granted, haven't tried QGIS 4 yet) and I admit that I enjoy working with public datasets that are hosted on e.g. ArcGIS Online. https://share.geolibre.app is super neat, too.
It's funny to run into this particular project on HN: My side project (https://skaldmaps.com, if I may) uses a stack _very_ close to it, which is to say MapLibre + DuckDB + React + a PMTiles cache, and it's been super pleasant to work with (especially combined w/ dbt and a more "traditional" data stack). I also think it performs really well.
All that to say, definitely adding this one to the homelab!
This looks like an alternative to ArcGIS online Map Viewer. If so, this is exciting! A subscription free service for gathering data for non-profits in the field using web based tools.
That seems like a really cool project. Has a lot more detail on some things than google maps - where trash cans are etc. Quick glance around my local hood & seems to check out
It will be interesting to see how well it adapts and avoids regressions through future releases. The usual downfall of this vibecoded stuff is long term sustainability.
