This product was not featured by Product Hunt yet. It will not be visible on their landing page and won't be ranked (cannot win product of the day regardless of upvotes).
Most flight tracking apps have grown increasingly cluttered, ad-heavy, and sluggish on older hardware or busy airspaces. I wanted a fast, stripped-down, responsive flight tracker that prioritizes clean visualization and immediate responsiveness. I built it with a Python/Django backend and a reactive Solid.js frontend using OpenLayers to ensure thousands of live global flight vectors and trajectory animations render smoothly without bogging down the browser.
What feedback would help most:
Performance & Rendering: How smoothly does the map pan, zoom, and animate live flight routes on your machine and connection?
UI & Usability: Are the filters (airport, airspace, altitude, route) intuitive, and is there any key flight telemetry you feel is missing from the interface?
Feature Requests: What data overlays or specialized tracking views would make this tool significantly more useful to you?
