A map of places I've checked in on Earth.
- I want to plot all the places I've been to on a map.
- I want a digital version of push pins on a physical map.
- I want to show people where I've been to.
- I want to see where I haven't been to.
- I want to try Mapbox GL JS.
- I like the cool maps from Gyroscope.
- I need an excuse to get a
.earthTLD, inspired by Conquer Earth. (I already have.life)
- Generate access token from Foursquare (requires your own CLIENT ID, etc; figure it out on your own).
- Create
.envfile, with environment-specific variables on new lines:
ACCESS_TOKEN=XXX

Rawcheckins.jsonis not part of repo because of privacy.checkins[.min].geojsonfiles have shortened coordinates for privacy.npm run countries- Download a copy of country maps from djaiss/mapsicon. Then generate all optimized SVG countries.npm start- Watch and transpileassets/app.raw.js, and start the server.
