MapLibre GL Native
MapLibre GL Native is a free and open-source library for publishing maps in your apps and desktop applications on various platforms. Fast displaying of maps is possible thanks to GPU-accelerated vector tile rendering.
This project originated as a fork of Mapbox GL Native, before their switch to a non-OSS license in December 2020. For more information, see: FORK.md.
