It is awesome. Here's a docker image that'll serve as a tile server. Add a JS library (I use d3) and a OSM snapshot and go.

Note: a bit finicky.

I was going to post a comment how I would like to have a local instance of OSM for my state/region.

Is it possible to calculate directions/routing locally too?
