I submitted my travel planning web application [1] few weeks ago as Show HN [2] and it received tons of feedback and ideas that resonates with me. So I'm still working on it :)
I feel like once I list down the places in the map, I sort of can grasp which places should go together or play around with the schedules to make things work. Yes it's more manual work, but I feel that's part of the 'fun' in planning? (some people get stressed, but I love the planning part of the trip too)
Thanks for the feedback. I agree that everyone have their own workflow and this might not suit your prefered workflow. Having a 'idea list' is requested several times and I have started working on implementing it. But I don't think this app supports that 'democracy' collaboration yet, nor ticketing constraints...
Yeah I think over time I ended up making way too many of the fields being non-optional. I also agree that this is not for everyone, and lean towards my style of having all things planned out.
For now, my workflow of how this app should be used is together with other apps. For example, in a desktop mode, half the screen being this app, and the other half being Google Maps or AI chatbots giving suggestions or searches...
Thanks for the feedback and trying them out. Having a 'bucket list' of activities (without exact times) is definitely on my horizon to implement next. The 'region' to select is mainly used for map so I can scope down to that region only, but I do see some need to specify several regions as it could be a common case for travel in Europe/Schengen area
Yup, it's using CSS Grid and since I have to declare the grid templates upfront, and my granularity is at minute level, it means I have to declare each minute of the day, i.e. 24 * 60 = 1440, as the rows of the grid
