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:
- A fancy new 3D model on the front page (there is an easter egg, can you find it?)
- wanderer now uses vector map tiles which results in a significant performance boost for everything map-related
- As a result, we now also support topographical 3D maps in wanderer (see gif)
- Greatly improved social features: from list sharing, over profile pages and activity feeds to notifications
- The better location search allows you to search right down to the address
- 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!

I'm a fan of Wander, and have followed these posts with great interest, but haven't been able to successfully install it get myself. I'll give it another try in late Feb early Mar.
