About

I left my full-time job to build Map Your Voyage, a web app that helps users plan trips from Instagram in minutes instead of weeks. The idea came from a problem I faced myself — I had around 12,000 saved posts on Instagram, all sitting in the default “saved” folder. When I wanted to visit a specific country, there was no easy way to figure out which posts were from that place. Even if I managed to find them, I’d still have to rewatch all the reels and posts, jot down the locations manually, and then figure out how to include them in my itinerary — a process that was incredibly time-consuming. That’s what inspired me to create Map Your Voyage. Before this, I worked as a Software Engineer in Singapore since 2016.

👋 Any solo developers here? Would love to hear how you’re building

Hello, Product Hunt I came to Product Hunt because I know there are a lot of solo developers here. Building alone is exciting, but also pretty tough sometimes. You have to plan, build, design, market all by yourself. Some days you re confident, other days you re full of doubts. I kept wondering: Are there more people thinking the same way as me? How do other solo developers stay motivated and keep going? That curiosity brought me here. I d love to hear how you re building, what you re struggling with, and what keeps you moving forward. If you re working solo, let s share experiences, help each other out, and try to build consistently together. Looking forward to learning from you all
