A map studio that treats route planning as the input and a finished, export-ready map as the product. Controlled palette system, vector-tile rendering, a responsive composition interface, and an export pipeline that produces presentation-grade PNG and PDF artifacts.
Existing custom-map tools default to generic web cartography and produce output unsuitable for client-facing material. The objective was a product where palette and composition are first-class decisions, the editing experience is responsive across desktop and mobile, and exports drop straight into a slide, an itinerary, or a website embed.
Tile rendering is handled by Mapbox GL (via react-map-gl), with a custom style layer on top. Palettes are declared in structured JSON and every map layer derives its color from the palette, so a single palette change retunes the entire map deterministically. Routes and waypoints are grouped by day, stage, or region in a Zustand store, with drag-and-drop reordering.
The editor is built on a unified state model that supports pointer and touch input without functional reduction on mobile. An Export Studio strips the builder chrome and renders the composed map artifact to PNG or PDF across fixed presets — 16:9 slide, A4 portrait/landscape, website embed, square social, or custom — so the on-screen preview matches the downloaded file.
The product turns a planning task that normally lives in screenshots into a repeatable design output: a consistent palette language across every export, presets that match where the map will actually be used, and an editing model that scales from a laptop trackpad to a phone touchscreen without feature reduction on mobile.
Available to invited users while the export pipeline stabilizes for production load. Access can be granted on request.
