Hey folks!
If you’re running dump1090 (or similar) on Linux and just want a clean, easy way to see local ADS-B traffic, check out WaveADSB. It’s a native Linux app – no Mono, no browser, no heavy dependencies – just connect it to your SBS-1 feed and you’re good to go.
While I like VRS (Virtual Radar Server) I don't like having to install mono-complete to run it on linux, nor do I honestly care for the clunking configuration.
So I built WaveADSB a simple flutter application (cross platform) to make things as simple as possible on linux, or otherwise.
How it's Different:
Quick start:
Extras:

How it's Different:
- Truly native: Runs on Linux without extra frameworks.
- Easy setup: Just point it at your decoder’s TCP feed (usually port 30003).
- Offline maps: Download your area for no-internet setups.
- Privacy first: No cloud, just your local feed.
Quick start:
- Launch WaveADSB.
- Add your feed (IP + port).
- Watch aircraft appear on the map – tracks, flight details, the works!
Extras:
- Set a home location with range rings.
- Show flight paths.
- Click planes for ICAO, altitude, speed, etc.
