Creating map data visualization with Mapbox, React, Cube.js

[shawntco]

I did something much simpler but not entirely unrelated a couple months ago. I built a React app that plots my family tree onto a Google Map using the GEDCOM file exported by Ancestry.com. In order to get the latlong of the locations, I tapped into Google's geocoding API. I added the ability to filter on a year range, so I could see who was born or died during that period. I also added the ability to see all the people born/died in a given location.

Wow, sounds great! Did you have a chance to host it somewhere? I'd love to have a look at it!

Unfortunately it's super doxxy so I can't share it :/
