Build Maps with React Leaflet
If you've ever worked on a website for a business, there's a good chance you've included a map.
A Google Map embed is sufficient for showing a location, but doesn't leave you many customization options.
React Leaflet to the rescue!
In this course, Colby Fayock will guide you through a series of lessons and challenges that will build your map making skills as you build out a web app for a fictional restaurant.
You'll get practice with handling API keys and using React Hooks to implement a custom interactive map complete with metadata and additional overlays.
This course has built-in challenges that you are encouraged to pause and work through, but feel free to just watch.
What you'll learn:
- Using Mapbox to style the map's appearance
- Store location data in GeoJSON documents
- Customize map markers & tooltips to display metadata
- useEffect and useRef React Hooks
- Dynamic location-based data
- Event handling
