Extends the R Leaflet package with a Mapbox GL JS plugin to allow easy drawing of vector tile layers.
R
This R package extends the Leaflet mapping library with Mapbox GL rendering capabilities. It allows developers to create interactive maps using Mapbox’s vector-based map styles within R’s Leaflet framework.
The package enables hardware-accelerated WebGL rendering for improved performance and visual quality compared to traditional raster tiles. It supports Mapbox’s vector tile styles and basemaps while maintaining compatibility with standard Leaflet markers and overlays. WebGL support is required, and RStudio users may need to configure their rendering engine settings to Desktop OpenGL for proper display.
