About TinkerMap
TinkerMap is a live map of tech hobbyists, makers, and builders. It started with a simple idea: what if there was a map of people nearby who enjoy building things?
Built by Minhaj Noushad, a full-stack developer and AI engineer, TinkerMap helps you discover developers, makers, students, and tech enthusiasts around you — not based on followers or popularity, but on what they're interested in and what they're currently building.
How it works
Drop a Pin
Place your pin on the live map so people nearby can see where you build.
Tag Your Skills
From ML and DevOps to embedded hardware — your tags make you searchable.
Find Nearby Builders
Open the map, browse profiles, and reach out through each builder's links.
Why I built this
I wanted a simple way to discover people around me who share my passion for building. Not based on follower counts — just a map and the people on it. No ads, no feeds to game.
Security
TinkerMap has been security-audited. See the full audit report for details on vulnerability assessments, rate limiting, XSS prevention, and more.
