It would be cool if you could manually add landmarks to the maps. For example, the names of peaks, towns, bodies of water, etc. It would be amazing if this could be pulled in automatically, but I don't know if there's a good public source of landmark data.

It would also be cool if you could automatically link your media to the GPS track, like photos and journal entries. They could be assigned to the correct spot in the track via their timestamp or geolocation data.


Regarding your first point: this is already implemented! In the 3D view you see these little markers on the model with text displaying OSM features "peaks" and "saddles"

Second point: I'm a bit hesitant to store media on the server or on a cloud service, this seems rather costly as this is a free service. But I don't have much experience with this, maybe someone has a good idea on how to manage it?


I agree it was a little distracting. Maybe a small, highlighted circle on the spot in the track that your mouse falls over? edit: I like how you highlight the current spot in replay mode.


For anyone Javascript-savvy, you can take a shot at https://github.com/r-follador/CubeTrek_Babylon and experiment with different ways to highlight the current see spot. Any help is appreciated!


Try out Storyteller, they're working on this exact problem: https://smoores.gitlab.io/storyteller/


Very cool, thanks for sharing! I'll follow the project and hope there's some way to get this running on Kobo or other eInk readers in the future.


It's using an oft-ignored part of the ePub standard, so I think all that should be needed for Kobo support is implementation of that part of the standard in KOReader.


This product looks really cool! But I would have to know more about the pricing model before I could recommend it at work. Also, does it work across SSH sessions? ie can I shell into a different machine as part of the runbook?


Savvy doesn't have SSH support, but I'm working to add it soon.

I think we can make SSH support work without installing Savvy on the remote machine, but I'm still working through the details.

I'm laser-focused on nailing the DX and making sure it delivers a lot of value to our users.

If you're up for it, I'd love to chat and learn more about how Savvy can help you personally and at work - my email is shantanu@getsavvy.so
