Hello everyone! I just wrote an extremely simply single-page tool using just HTML and Flask to convert google maps links to Osmand.net links, and I would like to host it somewhere.

I don't need any fancy bells and whistles, as long as it supports Flask as a backend.

Im no web developer, so I haven't actually hosted my own page anywhere before. As such, simplicity of use and setup is quite important. For example if it allows me to also buy the domain in the same platform thats good.

While I use Flask, there is no data being stored. All the flask app does is take the link given by the user, convert it to the osmand.net format, and return it. Super simple!

I looked on buy-european.net and found Infomaniak Web Hosting. I quite like the fact that they use 100% renewable energy to power their servers according to the page above, but I'm not sure if it would be the best option given how inexperienced with all this I am.

Would love to hear your suggestions! Thanks

Edit: Ended up going with hetzner. Site is pretty much set up right now.

gmaps2osm.de

It has some screen-reader support (still need to get it tested by visually impaired people), and is also set up so that you can install it as a PWA on your mobile device (add to home screen).

Here is the github repo: https://github.com/promitheas17j/gmaps2osm

I would really appreciate any feedback from experienced and not so experienced web developers alike :D

[Solution at end]

Essentially what the title sais.

I want to give this genre a try, but I also want to use mods. Also, Im on Linux so if there are any extra steps I need to do if I install through lutris/steam (as non-steam game) then I would really appreciate your input. The only reason I am currently considering steam as a non-steam game for the install method is just so I dont fragment my games library too much across multiple platforms/apps. If there is any reason not to install it in steam please also let me know.

Much appreciated!!!

[SOLUTION]

Turns out the torrent I found was just a .rar file of the game with the crack file already there. All I had to do was unpack it, then add it through Lutris as a locally installed .exe. I did have to change the runner to proton-ge as the default wine would not start the game. I also had to go into the prefix it created and apply this fix (steamcommunity link) to get it to stop displaying an annoying pop-up message every 30 minutes or so (yet to test it out, but it should work. Will edit again if it doesnt remove the pop-up message).

Also, strangely enough at least for my experience with pirating games, the in-game mod "store" worked perfectly, and I didn't need to manually move files to a mods folder, though I'm sure that would also work just as well.

EDIT 2: The workaround to edit the playtime in the game files worked and I no longer get the pop-up message.
