    <p>Hi Nikhil & Niharika,</p>
    <p>thanks for the suggestion. I'm still a bit conflicted about
      adding support for TSP tbh.. But I'll re-open the original issue,
      maybe it's not even that much work. I could be convinced with a
      proper design suggestion on how to set up a "Optimized" tab in the
      app. <br/>
    </p>
    <p>The one advantage the Valhalla TSP has over other solutions is
      that it's neatly integrated with all available costing options,
      whereas e.g. VROOM needs (pretty annoyingly) custom matrices to
      take full advantage of Valhalla's costing options. And since it's
      supposed to be a frontend for Valhalla, maybe we should really
      support it at some point. But also do note, it's not necessarily
      providing optimal solutions, see <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/valhalla/valhalla/issues/2287">https://github.com/valhalla/valhalla/issues/2287</a>.
      <br/>
    </p>
    <p>Map-matching support would be another nice addition, and possibly
      less work than a TSP frontend. /trace_route would be enough, for
      reference: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/gis-ops/valhalla-app/issues/159">https://github.com/gis-ops/valhalla-app/issues/159</a>.<br/>
    </p>
    Cheers<br/>

        </div>
        <div>Suggestion: Valhalla's Optimized Route service API could
          use some frontend.</div>
        <div><br/>
        </div>
        <div>When I had checked <a href="https://github.com/valhalla/demos/tree/gh-pages/optimized_route" moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://github.com/valhalla/demos/tree/gh-pages/optimized_route</a>
          it hadn't worked at my end. (not sure if some issue in the
          code or just a bug at my end - I didn't dig deeper)</div>
        <div><br/>
        </div>
        <div>Also the main demo frontend: <a href="https://valhalla.openstreetmap.de/" moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://valhalla.openstreetmap.de/</a></div>
        <div>Which seems to have its source code here: <a href="https://github.com/gis-ops/valhalla-app" moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://github.com/gis-ops/valhalla-app</a></div>
        <div>.. there too they have not yet added Optimized Route
          feature from the looks of it. </div>
        <div><br/>
        </div>
        <div>There was this one request last year: <a href="https://github.com/gis-ops/valhalla-app/issues/28" moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://github.com/gis-ops/valhalla-app/issues/28</a><br clear="all"/>

                                  maintainers as being too much work.</div>
                                <div><br/>
                                </div>
                                <div>So, this is something that an open
                                  source contributor can do. Relatively
                                  fresh work, so most of the work can
                                  happen in new modules/files and won't
                                  be at too much risk of clashing with
                                  existing codebase.</div>
                                <div><br/>
                                </div>
                                <div>PS: I'm not involved in maintaining
                                  any of this stuff; I am just an end
                                  user. So this is only a suggestion.</div>
