🌱 PlantsPack
plantspack.com — a free, ad-free directory of
50,000+ vegan and vegan-friendly places across 10,000+ cities in 160+ countries,
with city-by-city vegan-friendliness rankings, community reviews, and a manually
verified "fully vegan" tier where each venue is hand-checked against its own menu.
No paid listings, no ads, no algorithmic recommendations sold to the highest
bidder. The project is community-funded; 50% of profit goes to animal welfare
causes.
Built with Next.js 15 (App Router) on top of Supabase / PostgreSQL, with PostGIS
for geospatial queries and Postgres full-text search for the autocomplete +
results page.
