The Problem
Travellers and aviation enthusiasts lacked a simple, fast way to see live flight information and explore routes. Existing tools were slow, cluttered with ads, or buried key information behind complex interfaces.
The Solution
SKYMAP is a simple flight tracking and travel information platform. An interactive map shows live flights, while search lets users find flights, routes and airport details quickly — on any device.
Challenges
Handling high-frequency live updates without jank required efficient client-side state management and careful map rendering. Normalising data from multiple aviation sources into one fast search index was also demanding.
Result
A fast, easy-to-use platform that makes live flight information genuinely useful for travellers and enthusiasts.
