Mine helps travelers find hostels where there are lots of other people staying (https://hostelhawk.com https://hostelhawk.com). It's been a side project since I started working as a digital nomad over 1.5 years ago and has helped me find sociable hostels to stay in so I never get lonely. Uses Ionic framework + Angular.js. Still very much a work in progress, so any feedback is appreciated!
- Nicholas_C 11y agoHow does this work? The about button isn't working for me.
- carbeewo 11y agoRight now the About button just shows the same Hostel Hawk popup from when the site loads; clicking it while it's already displayed does nothing. But I'll add more info about the site soon and fix that. Basically you can explore the map and see what cities are most popular with travelers right now. You can zoom in and check out how many travelers are staying (approximately) at the tops hostels. The app also displays ratings weighed by number of reviews, so a hostel with only one review and a high rating won't outrank another one with thousands of reviews but a slightly lower rating. My ultimate goal is to make finding popular sociable hostels super easy and ultra quick.
- Nicholas_C 11y ago>You can zoom in and check out how many travelers are staying (approximately) at the tops hostels. I understand the gist and it sounds useful, but how are you determining (approximately) how many travelers are staying at the top hostels?
- provost 11y agoThe weighting concept sounds great. I'll use this for my next Euro-trip! Thanks!
