A DbTimestamp brand, produced only by dbNow(), types the expiry writes of OAuth tokens and password reset links, and collection edits stamp updated_at the same way. parseDbTimestamp() reads the stored text as UTC and replaces the oauth-local parser; utcSuffix lives once beside it. A data migration rewrites the ISO values those writers left behind, and the OAuth session lists keep answering the expiries in ISO. Two outputs change on purpose. collections.updated_at used to come back in two spellings: a collection never edited answered the column default (2026-01-02 03:04:05), an edited one the ISO text its writer stored (2026-01-02T03:04:05.678Z). It now answers the canonical text in every case, in the PUT and cover responses and, once the migration has run, in every read; the shared schema types it as a plain string and the client does not read it. The ISO expiries of the OAuth session lists are rebuilt from the stored second-precision text, so they end in .000Z instead of carrying the milliseconds of the write.
A self-hosted, real-time collaborative travel planner — with maps, budgets, packing lists, a journal, and AI built in.

Most of what follows is an addon an admin switches on or off. Lists, Costs, Documents, Collab, Vacay and Atlas ship on; Journey, Collections, MCP, AI Parsing and AirTrail ship off and are marked below.

AI usage
We use LLM-assisted coding tools across parts of this codebase. Nothing ships that a maintainer has not read and understood: every change goes through a pull request, is reviewed and tested, and has a human who can answer for it. "The AI wrote that" is not an answer any of us would accept from ourselves.
See How we use AI in TREK for the details.
Get started in 30 seconds
ENCRYPTION_KEY=$(openssl rand -hex 32) docker run -d -p 3000:3000 \
-e ENCRYPTION_KEY=$ENCRYPTION_KEY \
-v ./data:/app/data -v ./uploads:/app/uploads mauriceboe/trek
Open http://localhost:3000. On first boot TREK seeds an admin account — if you set ADMIN_EMAIL/ADMIN_PASSWORD those are used, otherwise the credentials are printed to the container log (docker logs trek).
Tech stack
Real-time sync via WebSocket (ws). Backend on NestJS 11. State with Zustand. Auth via JWT + OAuth 2.1 + OIDC + Passkeys (WebAuthn) + TOTP MFA. Weather via Open-Meteo (no key required). Maps with Leaflet and Mapbox GL.
Docker Compose (production)
The repository ships a ready-to-use docker-compose.yml
with secure defaults and every option documented inline. Download it, then:
docker compose up -d
See Install with Docker Compose for the full walkthrough.
Helm (Kubernetes)
helm repo add trek https://chart.liketrek.com
helm repo update
helm install trek trek/trek
See charts/README.md for values.
Install as App (PWA)
TREK works as a Progressive Web App — no App Store needed.
- Open TREK in the browser (HTTPS required)
- iOS: Share ▸ Add to Home Screen
- Android: Menu ▸ Install app (or Add to Home Screen)
TREK then launches fullscreen with its own icon, just like a native app.
Updating
See Updating — Docker Compose, Docker run, Helm, Portainer, Unraid and Proxmox, plus the encryption-key note.
Reverse Proxy
For production, put TREK behind a TLS-terminating reverse proxy. TREK uses WebSockets for real-time sync, so the proxy must support WebSocket upgrades on /ws.
If you use the MCP addon, the proxy must also pass the Mcp-Session-Id header through in both directions on /mcp — Nginx and Caddy do this by default, but a proxy that strips it makes every tool call open a new session instead of reusing one. See the Reverse Proxy wiki page for details.

Caddy
trek.yourdomain.com {

Caddy handles TLS and WebSockets automatically.
