Hiking Tracks Backend

State: WIP

A Kotlin/JVM based backend to expose my hiking tracks to the frontend application (see https://gpxtracks.vercel.app/ and https://github.com/stefanroeck/gpxtracks) This app will roughly do the following

• ✅ Search for tagged hiking tracks in my Dropbox account (tag #longdistancewalk)
• ✅ Convert the raw FIT files to GPX
• ✅ Process the track data for single usage (elevation view) and bulk data (map overview)
• ✅ Make this performant, e.g. by leveraging some caching
• Also older process TCX files from Dropbox
• Fetch Weather data and store in Mongo instead of fetching in UI
