Hello HN!
Less than a month ago, as we started hearing about city's bookstores closing down - a small community got together to list their city's bookstores and ways to help them.
It resulted in detailing their gift cards, ways to order through them and if you couldn't order anything - a way to increase their social media following.
I took the spreadsheet and a friend proficient in Glide apps, converted it to an app.
This app now has listings of 800 bookstores in 21 countries. I am looking for feedback on how to improve the app, what elements would you add to it and what information is redundant for you?
Can I request that you make your data available as Open Data? Maintaining a dataset like this is a lot of work, and if people make data sets available as Open Data then people doing this kind of work can reuse and help each other.
