Hey there,

it’s been a while since my last post. 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 alongside a shiny new landing page.

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.
  • 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.

    If you guys like hiking and stuff, there’s this cool open source app called trail sense on f-droid and it’s just so much feature packed…

    I don’t hike, so I only use it for it’s pedometer capabilities and a hypothetical situation where “I might get really lost” but the amount of features it has for hiking and survival is crazy and so I think deserves to be more known.

    Hi, this looks amazing, I’ll try it ! How is Pocketbase? What are your thoughts working with it?

    Also, have you thought about federating trails? It would be amazing we could build a decentralized alternative to the big corps.

      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.

    Is there any support for heart rate data inclusion on recorded trails? Maybe I’m really looking for a different app to keep track of that sort of thing. I haven’t yet started monitoring heart rate on my bike rides but I’m considering options for tracking now.

    I host wanderer and really enjoy it for what it is. I’m only supporting my wife and I but am considering opening it up to my friend group.
