Description
This course is a wide survey of using Mapbox in modern web applications. It covers everything you need to know: finding and formatting data, styling and understanding the web interface of Mapbox Studio, and building truly responsive and complex web maps using the modern Mapbox GL JS.
This course assumes you come with little knowledge of programming and geographic information, and there are videos to walk you through each step. You'll learn to create big, beautiful custom maps and all the different ways your users can interact with those maps.
This course was made with a slightly different interface from what Mapbox Studio uses today, but the concepts are still recognizable and you will do well to get a strong grasp on Mapbox through this course. This is a solid foundation for building online web maps, or even making a move into building mobile apps with Mapbox, although we don't go over that specifically in this course.
It's going to be a great time! Let's get mapping!
