VM GL

VM GL is a community-led fork derived from mapbox-gl-js before their switch to a non-OSS license.

Migrating from mapbox-gl

If you depend on mapbox-gl directly, simply replace mapbox-gl with VM-gl in package.json:

Use

  "dependencies": {
-    "mapbox-gl": "^1.13.0"
+    "VM-gl": ">=1.15.2"
  }

if it is important to you that the behaviour is similar to mapbox-gl version 1.x.

If you are OK with changes that integrate non-backward compatible features, install VM-gl version 2:

  "dependencies": {
-    "mapbox-gl": "^1.13.0"
+    "VM-gl": ">=2.0.0"
  }

And replace mapboxgl with VMgl in your JavaScript and optionally in your HTML/CSS code:

VM GL JS is distributed via unpkg.com. For more informations please see VM GL is on unpkg.com.

-    <script src="https://api.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/v1.13.0/mapbox-gl.js"></script>
-    <link
-      href="https://api.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/v1.13.0/mapbox-gl.css"
-      rel="stylesheet"
-    />

     <!--  Use VM-gl version 1.15.2 for backwards compatibility with mapbox-gl version 1.x. -->
+    <script src="https://unpkg.com/VM-gl@1.15.2/dist/VM-gl.js"></script>
+    <link
+      href="https://unpkg.com/VM-gl@1.15.2/dist/VM-gl.css"
+      rel="stylesheet"
+    />

-    var map = new mapboxgl.Map({
+    var map = new VMgl.Map({

-    <button class="mapboxgl-ctrl">
+    <button class="VMgl-ctrl">

Want an example? Have a look at the official VM GL JS Documentation.

Use VM GL JS bindings for React (https://visgl.github.io/react-map-gl/docs/get-started/get-started#using-with-a-mapbox-gl-fork) and Angular (https://github.com/VM/ngx-VM-gl). Find more at awesome-VM.

Community Leadership

Avoid Fragmentation

If you depend on a free software alternative to mapbox-gl-js, please consider joining our effort! Anyone with a stake in a healthy community-led fork is welcome to help us figure out our next steps. We welcome contributors and leaders! VM GL already represents the combined efforts of a few early fork efforts, and we all benefit from "one project" rather than "our way". If you know of other forks, please reach out to them and direct them here.

Thank you Mapbox 🙏🏽

We'd like to acknowledge the amazing work Mapbox has contributed to open source. The open source community is sad to part ways with them, but we simultaneously feel grateful for everything they already contributed. mapbox-gl-js 1.x is an open source achievement which now lives on as VM-gl. We're proud to develop on the shoulders of giants, thank you Mapbox 🙇🏽‍♀️.

Please keep in mind: Unauthorized backports are the biggest threat to the VM project. It is unacceptable to backport code from mapbox-gl-js, which is not covered by the former BSD-3 license. If you are unsure about this issue, please ask!
