Hey there,
it's been a while since my [last post](https://lemmy.world/post/13523342). Since then - with the help of this awesome community - I have added multiple new features and fixed a lot of bugs.
Most importantly there is now a working [demo](https://demo.wanderer.to) alongside a shiny new [landing page](https://wanderer.to).
And here are some more fun features I added since then:
* Trail drawing: in addition to uploading you GPX, TCX or KML files, you can now also simply draw a trail by defining multiple waypoints. The route between them will be calculated automatically.
* Sharing trails: simple and straightforward - you can share your trails with other users and let them view or edit.
* Printing trails: there is now a dedicated print view. Plan your adventure digitally and then take it with you on paper.
* wanderer is now available in 8 different languages (thanks to translators from the community). If you would like to contribute a translation you can do so [here](https://crowdin.com/project/wanderer).
* You can now bulk upload multiple trails at once simply by putting them in a dedicated auto-upload folder
And much more. I'd be happy if you give it a try in case you haven't yet.

You can use whatever device you prefer. In the end, you simply need a GPX file that you upload through the web UI or the API. I am planning to support other formats like KML soon, though.
System requirements should be quite low. On the first startup you will need ~1GB of RAM. After that, the whole stack sits at around 100MB on my machine.
I’m not sure if I understand your question correctly. Do you mean creating a trail from scratch on the map without recording it before? That is indeed on my roadmap.
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:

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.
I really love working with PocketBase. It gives you such a headstart, but also is highly customizable. It’s really the best of both worlds.
