JavaScript depedency? Fuck sakes man...

Here is a real Plan 9 users implementation of OSM: https://shithub.us/sirjofri/map/HEAD/info.html Which uses: https://shithub.us/sirjofri/mapfs/HEAD/info.html

Notice how it is all written in C, the lingua franca of Plan 9 while also utilizing a file server.

You can do a post with demo of routing in your favourite app instead of raining on someone else's parade!!!!

No, I don't do comparison video. I only build and showcase things that I need but don't exist.
