Favourites #11

Please consider adding a list of favourites so one can fast access often used hackerspaces.

Also it would be cool, if you support manual adding of links, which are not in the directory.

We'll have to redo the space selection, I'll look into a nice way to have favorite and to select spaces by country or so. Also this will need to have a local database of the spaces in the directory, which will improve user experience as the inital list doesnt always need to be loaded. If you have other ideas, just throw them here! Thanks

I think your approach is probably the best idea. One could implement three lists, one which is updated from spaceAPI directory on first start and consecutive on user request, one which contains manually added entries/urls and the one which is displayed as main screen. This third (fav) list could contain only ids mapping to list entries of both "source lists". This way the favourite list entries could be updated easily. (Not sure since I didn't exactly take a look on the spaceAPI directory.) I hope this helps, I enjoy developer talk.
