Show HN: Maptoolkit.org – Free and beautiful vector maps
maptoolkit.orgWe built Maptoolkit.org - a free, production-grade vector maps service built on OpenStreetMap and MapLibre.
Map rendering and tile hosting have historically been either expensive (Google, Mapbox) or complex to maintain yourself. (Plus: Their maps are car-focused.)
Our maps feature max data zoom 15, global hill-shading, 3D terrain, contour lines, water depths, and specialized styles (like Hiking, Cycling, Winter).
No sign up or API keys required. You can use it like this:
``` const map = new maplibregl.Map({ container: 'map', style: 'https://styles.maptoolkit.org/summer.json', // <- that's all you need to add center: [11.40, 47.27], zoom: 12 }); ```
And you can create custom styles with our MapMaker. Maybe a Elden Ring map style for your website?
We hope you like it.
This is nice and something I'd probably use on my business's website hero-section!
Nice! In the MapMaker (https://mapmaker.maptoolkit.org/) you can upload an image and it will create a color scheme derived from that image and style the map accordingly.
So you can try to upload your Logo to have a map matching your color scheme :-)
One finger panning is better.
Tried the winter map once and it quickly crashed.
