Overview:

I struggled to find an app that combined mapping, photo integration, and journaling. This inspired me to create my own travel mapping app - a digital companion that plots routes and serves as an interactive journal.

Challenges:

  • Integrating Mapbox for interactive maps and custom markers.
  • Creating a seamless photo integration system.
  • Designing an intuitive interface for location notes.
  • Secure user authentication and data storage.

Implementation:

I chose Mapbox for its React-friendly integration and generous free tier. Supabase handles the authentication and data storage, while Resend handles email notifications.

Key Decisions:

  • Develop a user-friendly interface for adding trips and locations.
  • Implement media management for memories and photos.

Learnings:

  • Custom markers and interactivity in Mapbox.
  • Supabase for authentication and data management.
  • Implementing a rich text editor for journal entries.
