What is Moveet?

Moveet is an open-source real-time vehicle fleet simulator that uses OpenStreetMap road data (GeoJSON) as its spatial backbone. It builds a graph from the road network, runs A* pathfinding, and simulates multiple vehicles moving in real time — with WebSocket updates and a live map dashboard built with React and D3.js.

Why it fits this list

  • Directly consumes OpenStreetMap GeoJSON road data to build its routing graph
  • A* pathfinding runs on the OSM-derived network
  • Demonstrates a practical, interactive use-case for OSM road data
  • MIT licensed, TypeScript/Node.js

Added to the JavaScript section.

Has anybody used the project yet and can vouch for its awesome ness? The project is less than 24 hours old. I'm just pessimistic because it looks so vibe-coded, including this PR. 15 hours ago the commit reads "initialize project with package.json"

I have to agree with @mtmail on this...

There is a few things about this PR which don't quite line up with the general awesome list guidelines and ideas:

  • the project is not established long (an application which according to the commit log has been created in 2 days with an AI agent listed as a co-author raises some quality / lifecycle concerns)
  • the project is pretty low engagement (4 stars, 1 non-bot-contributor, 3 docker pulls)
  • projects are meant to be submitted to the most fitting awesome list (this rule can be stretched for some projects which may appear in 2 lists, but 5 lists seems excessive)
  • the project is listed under web-maps , which is meant to be for end-user-friendly ready-to-use maps which display real information, not simulations

Personally I don't quite see how this project would fit this list. I understand the project sources data from OSM for its routing, yet the output it produces only seems useful for people developing fleet management solutions, which seems like a very small user circle.

Especially on that last (personal) view I'm willing to discuss if I'm overlooking something. But the quality concerns I've listed above would need to be resolved either way.

Hi, feedback received. To be completely honest, the project was started in december 2024, manually coded in 3 different repositories. I deleted the repositories just yesterday, however github packages can demostrate that:
https://github.com/ivannovazzi?tab=packages - name was fleetsim.

I just decided to restore the project back and reorganize it under a monorepo, hoping to get someone contribute to it. But I understand if does not have that much awesomeness - it's quite a small utility really indeed
