Create a tile server with the base map and some custom data. Build a web site with both the base map and custom data using MapLibre GL+Martin+PG+Planetiler+osm2pgsql+... Learn tools needed to have your own map server.
In this workshop we will generate base map tiles from OSM data using Planetiler, set up Martin tile server, use MapLibre GL JS to show the map. Additionally, we will add a PostgreSQL server, and will use osm2pgsql to import extra data from the same OSM dump, and do on-the-fly tile generation from PG.
