From Sept. 2022 to Sept. 2023, I worked with 2 other briliant people on an app to help you go for a walk & explore the world. It was supposed to have social sharing at some point too, but we never got there, the project got wrapped due to cofounder conflict and lack of resources.
While I will need some time to figure out my next steps, I retain full copyright on the source code written during that year, and decided to share it instead of binning it.
It's capable of quite a few cool things:
- tuned & optimized background geolocation tracking
- fully on-device data processing (except for snap-to-road feature) of location history to revealed fog of war and traced walk path,
- high-def geometry-based fog of war
- scrappy web-engine based multithreading solution
If you're curious, feel free to dig around!
This is a basic managed expo app, and there are a few scripts in package.json
that should help you find your way.
Secrets and API keys have been cut out of this release, and you might need to get new ones and put them in app.config.ts
to succesfully build the app.
All removed secrets have been replaced with the [CENSORED]
tag to easily identify where they're missing.
The implementation contains leftovers of our monitoring and tracking solutions (UXCam, Sentry). The API keys related to those have been deleted from the source code, and the related accounts on the monitoring platforms have been closed.
