- Cost
- $0 / forever (Open Source)
- License
- MIT
- Hosting Model
- Local or hosted (your machine or their cloud)
- Platforms
- webthey host it
- Installation
- Use the hosted browser/PWA, or self-host the static web application with Docker or a normal web build
- Operational Setup
- The hosted editor has no setup blocker; the trade is that it is file-centric rather than an account-based trip library, so the user must organize, sync, and back up GPX files separately.
- Where Your Data Lives
- GPX tracks are parsed and edited in the browser and exported back to files on the user's device; the hosted service states that route files are not uploaded to its server, although map/routing providers still receive the network requests needed to draw and route the map.
- The Catch / Trade-off
- gpx.studio is an excellent GPX editor, not a full trip service: it lacks offline mobile navigation, saved-tour sync, sport-specific recommendations, highlights, live tracking, and community discovery.
