    THIS IS IT! My company is finally switching from Google Maps to OpenStreetMap!

    This is challenging: we need maps, but also Geocoding and reverse, Directions, addresses autocomplete… https://switch2osm.org lists some libs, but I’d love to hear from real devs. Do you have resources and tips to share? Feedback on how to configure the different libs? E.g. nominatim often doesn’t find addresses, but I’m sure it can be tweaked.

      Remember, this is for professional projects so we need rock solid libraries. We surely can adapt / improve them a bit if they are open source, but can’t spend weeks on that. That's why I'm looking for tutorials and feedback about all the problems you encountered and how you solved them. I'm working for a carpooling companies, if our geocoding or our directions (itineraries) don't work, we're basically dead. So it's a tricky move :p

      @fla the folks who develop the #Leaflet map embed module for #Drupal might be one place to look for tips. Also the #OSMAnd folks?
