Does anyone know if there is a PG like tool which will help me make an app for camping/hiking routes? As in it's mostly a map, with some filters and it finds nearby locations.
Been looking around but it goes from "learn to code' straight to 'map technology' to 'map access api' which combines to be pretty darn hard.
Cheers
- mgkimsal 12y agointel's xdk platform might be worth looking at, as is titanium.
- notoriousjpg 12y agoThank you.
- general_failure 12y agoI encourage you to see Intel XDK screenshots. Just type "intel xdk" in google images. If that doesn't scare you...
- mooreds 12y agoI don't know if pg has changed significantly, but good maps were very hard to do when I looked at them seriously 2 years ago. Few a map centric app, JavaScript maps just don't cut it in production, an native plugins just weren't available for Android.
- tim333 12y agoThere are some examples of how to draw routes, markers etc on maps using google maps API at https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/polyline-simple https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/... and similar. Once you get it working on a webpage it's fairly simple to convert to an app using Phonegap. I made an app that way for finding bars open - kinda works ok. ('late bars london')
- nicholasreed 12y agoThis sound fun, and there is an awesome Famo.us+Mapbox implementation somewhere. Shoot me an email and let's make it real quick!
