Yezur is a hand-mapped fictional planet — a single-mapper worldbuilding project run by Wib on a self-hosted OpenStreetMap-API-compatible stack.

What this is

The map you see is rendered from an OSM-style database edited via JOSM and the bundled iD editor. The pipeline takes mapped features through osmosis, osmcoastline, and planetiler to produce a .pmtiles archive that MapLibre renders as vector tiles. A tileserver-gl raster proxy backs the homepage map you're looking at right now.

What this isn't

A multi-user instance. Email is disabled, signups are dormant, the diary / messages / communities surfaces are unused. The single account is wibbol; everything mapped is one mapper's handiwork.

Built on top of openstreetmap-website (GPLv2), planetiler, osmcoastline, MapLibre GL JS, and tileserver-gl. The map style is a Yezur-flavored variant of OSM Bright. All these projects are doing the heavy lifting; this site is just a little shell around them.
