I built this because I wanted to visualize my travel photos geographically without uploading them anywhere.

  Tech: Vanilla JS, Leaflet.js, client-side EXIF parsing, Nominatim geocoding, Service Worker for offline.

  No backend, no upload, no tracking. Everything stays in your browser.

  Would love feedback from the HN community!
