MapComponents is a new component framework to quickly and easily build dynamic geospatial web apps. It includes React front-end components for all kinds of projects, from small apps with a narrow and specific focus up to complex geospatial suites for the web. Server-side components are also planned to aid the development of flexible backend services.
MapComponents
- is a modular framework to create tailored geospatial web apps built upon modern webbrowser technology
- can be used to visualise and analyse geo data
- can be used for desktop and mobile applications (online and offline; progressive web apps (PWA))
- provides independent components which can be combined into full-fledged geospatial web applications (e.g. dashboards, WebGIS, ...)
- provides a catalog of components and example applications
- uses a flexible core which theoretically supports any kind of mapping library (currently supported are MapLibre, Mapbox GL JS and OpenLayers)
- is easily integrated into existing stacks
- makes it easy to rapidly design and deploy a map centric web app
MapComponents is developed by WhereGroup GmbH and is available under the MIT license.
