Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Bohdan, the solo founder and developer behind DaliWay. As someone who loves exploring off-the-beaten-path locations—like hidden lakes and abandoned ruins—I was deeply frustrated. My travel memories were scattered across disappearing social media stories and cluttered map pins. There wasn’t a single, dedicated place to log my personal geographic footprint and share it seamlessly with friends. That’s why I built DaliWay: your interactive, digital travel book. 🗺️ Here is what makes it different from existing tools: 📍 Map-First Profiles: Your profile isn't a grid of photos; it's a dynamic map showing everywhere you've been. 🔒 Flexible Privacy: Share your footprint with the world, or lock it down so only close family can see where you've stepped. 🤝 Social Discovery: Find hidden gems (like that secret local cafe or waterfall) by exploring the maps of people you trust, not algorithmic generic feeds. 🛠 Behind the scenes: I architected and built this entirely solo. To handle complex location data and social features efficiently, I built a custom spatial engine using .NET and PostgreSQL/PostGIS, paired with a React Native frontend. We are currently in our Beta launch. I would absolutely love your honest feedback! Specifically: 1. How does the interactive map feel to you? 2. What feature would make DaliWay your default app for logging trips or weekend walks? I'll be here all day answering your questions. Let's map the world together! 🚀
