01 · Where it started
The starting point
Each directory on its own is a small niche. Built separately, two dozen of them would mean two dozen sites to maintain.
The idea was one platform with shared search, design and accounts, where a new map can be added quickly.
One platform, many maps
Shared search, design and languages for every module.
Useful data first
Places are checked and updated by real people.
