Wanderer
Wanderer provides a privacy-first alternative to AllTrails and Komoot, giving outdoor enthusiasts complete ownership of their GPS data on a self-hosted server. The platform accepts uploads in GPX, KML, FIT, and TCX formats, automatically extracting distance, elevation gain and loss, duration, and speed statistics to build a searchable trail catalogue. The built-in route planner uses the Valhalla routing engine to calculate hiking, cycling, and walking routes directly on the map, while MapLibre GL renders smooth vector tiles from OpenStreetMap data with configurable tile sources and overlay layers. Each trail supports rich metadata including difficulty ratings, categories, waypoints with descriptions, photo galleries, and summit log entries that track completion dates with optional GPS data. Meilisearch powers instant full-text search across trail names, descriptions, and tags, complemented by map-based spatial filtering and advanced date, distance, and elevation filters. The ActivityPub integration follows the same federation protocol as Mastodon, allowing users to follow explorers on other Wanderer instances and see their public trails, comments, and summit logs in a unified feed without requiring cross-instance accounts. The WASM-based plugin system enables third-party extensions for custom integrations. The Docker Compose stack runs three containers — SvelteKit frontend on port 3000, PocketBase backend with embedded SQLite, and Meilisearch — with startup completing in under 90 seconds. On RepoCloud, deploy Wanderer on a dedicated VPS with root SSH access, persistent storage for your trail database and uploaded photos, and complete control over routing, geocoding, and tile server configurations, all under the AGPL v3 license.
Lyftr
Lyftr delivers a self-hosted workout and nutrition tracker that runs on a small VPS — no subscriptions, no vendor lock-in, no "export is a Pro feature" paywalls. The Go backend with Gin framework provides JWT authentication and a REST API while storing everything in a single SQLite database file you can back up with one copy command. The exercise library ships with 800+ movements auto-seeded on first run, letting you build reusable workout programs with target sets, reps, and weights from day one. Active workout mode provides a guided set-by-set flow through your session while Gym Mode offers a full-screen card layout showing one exercise at a time with an integrated rest timer for focused training. The React frontend built with TypeScript and Tailwind delivers a mobile-first interface featuring a dashboard with weekly session KPIs, daily calorie and protein tracking, 12-week consistency heatmap, volume trend charts, and muscle balance visualization with sparklines. Nutrition tracking connects to Open Food Facts for food search with camera-based barcode scanning, logging calories and macros across customizable meal sections. Bodyweight logging with trend graphs supports both lbs and kg units across all data. An Android APK connects to your self-hosted instance for native mobile access. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Endurain
A personal Strava on your own server: Endurain is a self-hosted fitness platform that keeps your complete workout history, GPS routes, and health data out of a vendor's cloud. It ingests the standard device formats (.gpx, .tcx, and preferred .fit with full sensor data) via manual or bulk upload, and syncs directly with Strava and Garmin Connect so migrating years of history is straightforward - Garmin sync covers activities, gear, and body composition. The dashboard shows activity feeds with weekly and monthly statistics, routes on maps, and distance, speed, and training-volume trends over time, with definable goals that update automatically. Gear tracking is notably deep: log wetsuits, bicycles, shoes, racquets, skis, and snowboards, assign default gear per activity type, and track individual components like bike chains against replacement mileage. Multi-user support with admin and user roles, follower features, per-activity privacy settings, and configurable sign-up (email verification, admin approval) make it usable for clubs and coaches as well as individuals. Auth is serious for a fitness app: MFA TOTP, OIDC/SAML SSO, and email-based password resets via Apprise. The stack is Vue.js over a Python FastAPI backend with PostgreSQL, plus weight, steps, and sleep logging, imperial/metric units, multi-language support, and third-party app integration.
