Hey everyone, #What is wanderer? wanderer is a self-hosted GPS track database. You can upload your recorded GPS tracks or create new ones and add various metadata to build an easily searchable catalogue. Think of it as a fully FOSS alternative to sites like alltrails, komoot or strava. #What is new? I'm coming back here to tell you a bit about what has been happening since my last update. Since then, we implemented some highly requested features:

  1. A fancy new 3D model on the front page (there is an easter egg, can you find it?)
  2. wanderer now uses vector map tiles which results in a significant performance boost for everything map-related
  3. As a result, we now also support topographical 3D maps in wanderer (see gif)
  4. Greatly improved social features: from list sharing, over profile pages and activity feeds to notifications
  5. The better location search allows you to search right down to the address
  6. And finally probably the most requested feature: integrations. You can now sync all your trails from strava and komoot directly with wanderer without having to manually export/import them

Big thanks to everyone who contributed code or translations! If you have any suggestions/questions feel free to let me know below.

Have a great weekend!

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.
