Holy shit I think I’m in love.
#Protomaps, a way to serve vector #maps of the entire world using a single static file and HTTP range requests.
It’s basically a static site generator for interactive maps. Tile servers are pretty much obsolete now. No database needed, you can run your interactive, smooth-zooming vector map from any HTTP storage. S3, Caddy running on your Wi-Fi router, even GitHub pages.

It’s open source & free to use. Wow. 🤯

  I genuinely feel like #Protomaps is not nearly getting the attention it deserves https://protomaps.com We can drop a single file on a static host and get stylable vector maps? Magic ✨ In combination with Maplibre it's a game changer for 99% of web map use cases 👏 #OpenStreetMap #MapLibre #Maps #Mapstodon
