What Hacker News says
3 sourcesI really like them as well. I enjoy them as a digital art form.
From what I understand, Scott Turner (Here Dragons Abound) got his inspiration from Martin O'Leary[0]. Lots of interesting reading on his site.
Another one in current development but as far as I know doesn't have a devlog quite like Scott Turner's is Azgaar's Fantasy Map Generator[1]. He did keep a devlog until 2018 sometime though[2].
Watabou's Medieval Fantasy Map Generator[3] is really good.
I'm sure I've seen more over the years but these are the ones I can remember.

In Fantasy Cartography: Just Add Something BlotchyCode-wise, it's mostly using d3.js to generate SVG. You can browse it at https://github.com/Azgaar/Fantasy-Map-Generator .
Algorithm-wise, it's built on Delaunay+Voronoi: https://azgaar.wordpress.com/2017/03/30/voronoi-graph/
The project started after Azgaar was inspired by Mewo2's map article and Scott Turner's amazing map blog: https://azgaar.wordpress.com/2017/03/30/first-post/
In Azgaar’s Fantasy Map Generator (2018)
