mapapp

An Open Source map-based application foundation.

LUMECraft's mapapp aims to be an application foundation for making multi-user 3D map-based apps. It is powered by LUME and Harp.gl for 3D globe map rendering, Solid.js for reactivity and templating, and Meteor for full-stack real-time database reactivity.

Demo

The latest stable features (i.e. the main branch) can be seen here:

https://mapapp.meteorapp.com

There is also a dev instance (i.e. from the dev branch) here:

https://mapapp.dev.meteorapp.com

Note that in these early stages, both are unstable and rapidly changing, and practically the same, for now.

Running

• sign up for a Here Developer plan at https://developer.here.com (they have free plans) and get an auth token. More info: https://developer.here.com/tutorials/harpgl/#acquire-credentials
• Open the file ./imports/keys.ts here in this project, and put your Here auth key:

  export const harp = 'AUTH_KEY'

  where AUTH_KEY should be replaced with your Here Developer auth key. Note for now that a free key is already provided by default inside keys.ts, and may not always work well or at all. You'll eventually want your own key.
• install Meteor: https://meteor.com
• install Node.js: https://nodejs.org
• run npm install in the project
• run npm start
• once the output says the app is running, visit http://localhost:3000
