I think you undervalue what's been done. See the code base, and
re-use/adapt whatever components you want. You can run your own custom
version.

https://github.com/fieldpapers

Could even integrate it with QGIS as a plugin, or flip that around and
use QGIS server to create the tile layer used in the background.
