There is a new interesting project on the market – a map of developers. Started as a Laramap by Florian Wartner, now it became a broader project, presenting to you PHPMap.co!
The idea is really simple – every developer can register and enter their full address which transforms them onto the map. Here’s my spot based in Lithuania – in the top-right corner.
In addition to that, there are two interesting things about the project.
1. It’s open-sourced. You can view or contribute to the project on Github – I see already 4 contributors at the time of writing!
2. It’s based on Laravel 5.3. Which is an interesting thing – recently released new framework version isn’t highly adopted yet, so this is a perfect chance to view the code and see for yourself how it works.
Also you can write articles there – not sure who would do that, since I wouldn’t expect too much audience on the site, but you can if you want to. In Markdown – isn’t that cool?
Not much more to say about the project, except for thanking the author Florian again. Keep up the good work!
It appears that website is no longer operational. That sucks.
