Locus interface — a dark map view with saved, tagged places (placeholder cover)
Cover art pending — placeholder motif shown until media is published.

Locus is a personal atlas: a place to pin locations that matter, tag them, and find them again when they become relevant. It runs as a Python API with a Next.js front end, packaged with Docker Compose.

Why it exists

Bookmarks are good at URLs and bad at places. Locus is an experiment in keeping a lightweight personal map — one that is cheap enough to maintain that it actually stays current.

Status

Personal project, built for an audience of one so far. A public demo may follow once it has earned it.
