Map your travels on an interactive 3D globe, offline, private, and yours.
So I travel a bit, and I’ve always wanted one of those maps where you can see every place you’ve been at a glance. The flat pin-board ones never felt right to me. The Earth is a sphere, so I wanted a sphere.
That’s the whole idea behind VISIT3D: a 3D globe you can spin around, drop a pin on a city you’ve visited, and just… look at your life on a planet.
Started it this week, here’s where it’s at:
A globe actually renders and you can drag to spin it
I can type a city, hit add, and a little dot shows up where it should
The dots survive a refresh
That last one took me longer than I’d like to admit.
Backend: Flask (Python). All it does for now is save my list of places to a JSON file and hand it back.
Frontend: Three.js / globe.gl for the actual 3D Earth.
