Want to put local history on a map, so when I go somewhere I could ideally just open this webapp and immediately get presented with cool or interesting history that happened close by.

Currently spending time establishing relationships with historical societies, as I really need them to contribute points of interest, and stories. Many of these societies are run on a voluntary basis by 70+ year olds, so it's a long process. Getting some good responses eventually though, so it might actually go somewhere, just a lot slower than I want.

Also still doing https://wheretodrink.beer, but haven't added anything of note since playing on this other project.

And react2shell was a blast

What’s the name of your localized history app? I’d love to contribute for my little town.
