This problem is noticeable here in Amsterdam too -- homeless people tend to just take the whole garbage bag out of the can, and empty it on the sidewalk so that it's easy to spot and collect all statiegeld (deposit) cans and bottles.

It looks like the best solution the municipality has managed to come up with so far is to attach metal cupholder-like thingies to new trash cans, and people are expected to put statiegeld bottles and cans there, so that others can take them later and get a refund. Though I don't know how a regular uninformed person is supposed to figure out what these cupholders are for -- it's not intuitive at all.

What makes it better compared to de-facto standard `classnames` library?

  const styles = tw({
      base: "p-4 rounded-lg shadow-md",
      dark: { if: isDarkMode, classes: "bg-gray-800 text-white" },
      light: { if: !isDarkMode, classes: "bg-white text-black" },
  });

can be written as

  const styles = classNames("p-4 rounded-lg shadow-md", {
      "bg-gray-800 text-white": isDarkMode,
      "bg-white text-black": !isDarkMode,
  });

which requires less boilerplate and arguably looks a bit cleaner.

It was never really meant to work on mobile. Honestly, this is more of a personal playground to try out different graphics algorithms, above anything. But the mobile version is requested a lot, so I will try finding time to work on it.

Streets GL is a web-based 3D map that uses OpenStreetMap data to render features such as buildings, roads, paths, trees, etc. on top of a dynamic terrain. Geometry for tiles is generated in runtime. Source code is available on GitHub: https://github.com/strandedkitty/streets-gl
