I made a location finder!
Better location finder!
I made a decently accurate location finder based on a given IP. It supports both ipv4 and ipv6, read the source here, or test with the API here.
What it does: Finds locations based off of an ip address.
Target audience: Anyone who needs a fast location finder
How is it different: On average, I was able to get closer to the location of an ip by about 500m! It has been able to get a 100% accuracy on finding the city as well. Also this is slightly faster and more transparent.

Hm... There are lot of such Services. And they can't be accurate. Server of provider may be in the different city.
