I built PublicPin, a free way to put local civic issues on a public map

Wait 5 sec.

Hi everyone, I built PublicPin using Codex and Astra in about 8 hours. I’ve been vibe coding for about a year and wanted to build something useful for the community. The idea is simple: take a fresh photo of a local issue, choose a category, and use your current GPS location to put it on a public map. Things like potholes, dumped rubbish or broken streetlights. It’s free and doesn’t need a signup. Photos are reviewed before they appear publicly. People can also confirm that an issue is still there or submit a resolution update for review. It helps make problems visible, but it doesn’t guarantee government action. https://publicpin.org I’d appreciate honest feedback on the reporting flow. Is it clear what becomes public, and what would make you come back to update an issue after reporting it?   submitted by   /u/Easy-Difficulty-2516 [link]   [comments]
