I built an open-source travel planner that I actually use

Description and use

Turistar is an open‑source travel planner that consolidates itinerary, budget, and daily activities into a single web app.

Problem

Trip planning information was scattered across Google Maps, notes, messages, and spreadsheets.

Outcome

Turistar provides a single, open‑source platform for organizing travel itineraries, budgets, and daily activities, improving efficiency and reducing data fragmentation.

Workflow

• Gather trip details and budget
• Create a new trip in Turistar
• Add activities per day
• Drag and drop activities to reorder
• Adjust budget entries
• Save and share the itinerary

Evidence

It lets you organize a trip by day, move activities with drag and drop, and keep the budget alongside the itinerary.
