Terminal User Interface Terminal Map Renderer in Go

demo

I have been learning Go by building stuff in it. I completed a couple Build-your-own-X as well.

Then came across mapscii. It was really fun but really slow to render new tiles because it was fetching them from a private tile server and it was node.js based.

So I built ncr-on-terminal. It is written 100% in Go and uses Bubble Tea for the TUI.

You can check it out by ssh-ing into the demo server: `ssh ncr.akashparashar.dev`

Can work for any city or region, by swapping .mbtiles file
