Introduction
Why is it different?
Focus on simple and free.
- Draw countries on a world map.
- Free - Really free with no limits.
- No registration - It is just a pure react component.
- No internet dependency - All the data is local, no calls to a back-end server.
- Easy to learn, easy to use, easy to customize.
Yet another package for world map...but why?
It all started with a fun project that I was building and needed to draw simple yet beautiful world's map. Searching for solutions I found many potential solutions like MapBox and Google Maps, but they were "too smart" for what I needed. They needed to "call home" for the data, they supported tons of options I didn't need, and while they included react-integrations, they were not completely native to the react world. There was definitely something missing. And that's when react-svg-worldmap started.
