I see many people in the comments nostalgically talking about the custom mapping scene and how it got them into programming.

The same is true for me, so I think here is a good place to plug my starcraft custom map archive website [0]. In 2020 because of the pandemic StarCraft enjoyed a surge of popularity again, I went looking for some custom maps that I remembered from the early 2000s but I couldn't find them. The existing websites at the time were not solving the problem for me so I set out to solve it myself. The website is a passion project for me, I don't want it to generate any revenue. It's been a fun ride and it's now easily the largest map archive that has ever existed. I think eventually I'll make a show HN post about it when I implement a few more cool features, but that will have to be for a later date.
