️ Building #OpenPace - federated activity tracking for the Fediverse
Think Strava, but:
Federates with Mastodon Self-hosted Your data, your rules Apache licensed
Thanks @javahippie for the inspiration!
️ Java + Quarkus + Vert.x + ActivityPub

Post a run → friends on Mastodon see it
Own your miles, share your journey
Contributions welcome. Let's build in the open!
To be clear. There’s no code so far. Just the raw groundwork and architecture.
@myfear @javahippie lovely idea!
@ben all creds go to @javahippie
He started his own here https://github.com/javahippie/fitpub and I thought it’s a great example to use some tokens for the greater good. It’s just way more than a tutorial and deserves some more thinking. So I thought I rally the community.
You could also contribute to https://wanderer.to
@qwc @javahippie added to the backlog!
Great! Let's keep in touch.
@myfear haha, we are almost neighbors, so we can also go for a coffee.
@myfear @javahippie I use OSMand for tracking hiking paths with open source software. Could this be a plug in for that existing project?
@myfear Hi Markus, nice project!
Will it be focusing only on running, or any types of activities will be possible?
If you need any input from a non-tech, sport enthousiast, I'll be glad to help.
@Thibaut open to suggestions. I’ve started sketching the bare minimum of activities. But it’s not limited. I’ll keep you posted. Feel free to sneak through the docs.
@myfear Great, I'll read it and will let you know if I can think of anything relevant.
@myfear Hey Markus,
I've been pitching a similar idea in my circles. Very much in the line of what you are suggesting. When you see someone with a similar idea, it gives you a nice validation.
I'd love to help you and bepart of making open-pace reality!
I think you're based in Munich, me too (well almost, Weilheim). I'd love to have a chat.
@myfear Nice! Would love to see some federation cooperation between this and https://github.com/SamR1/FitTrackee as well
@lehtimaeki anytime! Email and we get it going!
@BenjaminHan @javahippie muss net sein. Also ehrlicher geantwortet: Nein!
@myfear @javahippie looks like what I've been wanting to build for a long time. Even similar tech stack (Java + Postgres). Guess it'll be hard to contribute as long as there's no existing code, right? But I'll keep an eye out for my chance to join #OpenPace 
You guys don't happen to be at #FOSDEM to discuss about this project? Note: I'm not sure yet, if I can make it to FOSDEM this year.
