Events
What’s on—and what’s coming. Towns, venues, dates, and save-the-dates with update timestamps for calendars and tourism apps.
Lissiland
You can build the app in a weekend. You can’t fake the Vineyard.
UI tools are everywhere. The pain is the data layer—events, ferry boats, and the VTA—kept live so you don’t scrape.
The pain
Anyone can ship screens. Few can ship island truth.
Developers don’t need another framework pitch. They need Martha’s Vineyard information that doesn’t rot the week after launch.
- Stop scraping ferry boards and praying the HTML doesn’t change.
- Stop hand-updating event calendars from Facebook and PDFs.
- Stop guessing VTA routes when a visitor just wants the next bus.
The data layer
Three feeds. One island.
Authenticated JSON APIs for the Vineyard systems people actually ask about—so your product feels local on day one.
Ferry boats
The crossing is the island’s heartbeat. Routes and schedules structured for trip planners, boards, and “when’s the next boat?” features.
VTA buses
Vineyard Transit Authority routes, stops, and schedules—so riders and visitors move the island without a paper map.
For builders
Cursor can write the interface. Lissiland is the Vineyard underneath it.

Who is this for?
Developers, tourism sites, hotels, media, and anyone shipping a product that needs to feel like the island—not a brochure PDF.
