Besides a rewrite to another framework using AI, another option is to modernize the framework with AI instead. Personally, I started to like Mithril after having worked with it for a few years. Instead of rewriting it to a better maintained alternative (mithril doesn't have much active development going on since 2015), I used agents to add signals, proper state management, typing, ssr, computed properties, Bun tooling and more to it. Thanks to the existing test suite, changes landed quite reliably. Source: https://code.garage44.eu/jeroen/mithril

It already uses a harness (lightweight viewer) to generate screenshots with. The agent already sometimes compares it with the aerial layer, but I didn't gave it much thought. Currently, the most difficult things to get right are tunnels and bridges. Comparing it to real location imagery would probably help. I'll give it a try. Thanks for the suggestion!

Yes, it is all still very experimental. I think the data pipeline (gathering and constructing the tiles mostly) is still a bit problematic. I mostly test from the Android build at the moment, but I'll see if I can give the wasm build a bit more focus.

It is basically an openstreetmap viewer plus a simulator layer that turns the data (https://versatiles.org/) into 3d at a certain level of detail. The Netherlands have very detailed geo data-sets (https://www.pdok.nl/), which are used to augment the 3d representation with stuff like point-cloud rendered buildings (3DBAG), crop-rendering, benches, etc.. Basically, it tries to combine as much public data as possible, to represent a city. The simulator is then used to be able to navigate through it with an avatar and to build basic stuff (Secondlife prim-style + Lua scripting engine).

The wasm build has some issues. The new build may have fixed that particilar error. Not sure it's working yet (i'm testing on a phone that doesn't seem to do wasm anyway)

You're building the wasm variant? I'll checkout the error. In the meanwhile, you can also try the wasm build at https://cartopolis.org

Install Forgejo and move on...

I have been working in the past with Secondlife and OpenSimulator, and since then I aspired to build a map/virtual world mashup that would be suitable for augmented reality. Lack of time and experience with 3d coding always got in the way. Recently I gave it a try with Claude Opus, Rust, Bevy and Openstreetmap data (overpass/nominatim so far) and was suprised that a google earth style tile map system, 3d buildings and global poi's in the form of layers was not that hard at all with the help of AI. So now I want to build something useful out of it, which also should include social features like avatars, gps rtk, mobile clients, chat & video. Useful feedback is welcome.

I'm working on a set of open-source applications to help collaborate on building software. Basic principles are better online communication between people(Pyrite - Galene SFU, channel-based chat), automating i18n and project management where feasible.
