ViosMaps is an open-source project designed to simplify the creation and rendering of vector maps divided into regions, using the SVG format. It provides an intuitive way to set metadata and manage interactions with each map region, making it easier to build interactive map-based applications.
ViosMaps began as a small project to render and manage interactions with regions and provinces on maps of Italy and Argentina. By open-sourcing ViosMaps, the goal is to collaborate with developers worldwide, share ideas and knowledge, and further generalize the codebase through better modularization. We aim to add exciting new features and enhancements as a community and create comprehensive documentation that encourages developers to use ViosMaps as a library for their own projects.
