MapComponents is a new component framework to quickly and easily build dynamic geospatial web apps. It includes React front-end components for all kinds of projects, from small apps with a narrow and specific focus up to complex geospatial suites for the web. Server-side components are also planned to aid the development of flexible backend services.

MapComponents

is a modular framework to create tailored geospatial web apps built upon modern webbrowser technology
can be used to visualise and analyse geo data
can be used for desktop and mobile applications (online and offline; progressive web apps (PWA))
provides independent components which can be combined into full-fledged geospatial web applications (e.g. dashboards, WebGIS, ...)
provides a catalog of components and example applications
uses a flexible core which theoretically supports any kind of mapping library (currently supported are MapLibre, Mapbox GL JS and OpenLayers)
is easily integrated into existing stacks
makes it easy to rapidly design and deploy a map centric web app

MapComponents is developed by WhereGroup GmbH and is available under the MIT license.

We will present the project, with its current state and goals, and will show practical examples.
