alt Hacker NewsThere's no data when I tried it on a windows 11 PC. It seemed to install all deps front end is served but dossier says intel unavailable.
No planes etc.
No helpful output in the command window.
Seems fun but doesn't seem to be working.

Yeah this doesn't work on Mac either. This is just broken and nonfunctioning.

Ah, that's my fault for not making the error handling clearer in the UI. If the map is blank, it usually means the backend is missing the .env file with the free API keys (AISSTREAM_API_KEY and N2YO_API_KEY), so it's silently failing to fetch the streams.
Did the terminal throw any Python FastAPI errors, or did it just serve the Next.js frontend? I'm going to push an update later today to show a prominent "Backend Disconnected / Missing API Keys" warning on the UI so it doesn't just look dead. Thanks for testing it!
