Maputnik

What Maputnik is

Maputnik is a free, open-source visual editor for MapLibre GL styles. These styles set a map’s appearance and define the data and drawing order used to render it. The project targets developers and map designers, and the editor runs in a modern browser without signup or download. Users can also work locally with the Maputnik CLI or Docker. Open-source starting styles include Positron, OSM Liberty, and Toner, and the editor supports custom data imports. Finished styles can be exported as Mapbox GL JSON, sent to an anonymous GitHub gist, or saved as a flat file. The README says online map design stores data in local storage. Project documentation includes instructions for integration with Mapbox Studio. Maputnik is licensed under MIT, and its site says the project is maintained by MapLibre, which develops free and open-source mapping tools and libraries. The listed platforms include web, Linux, macOS, Windows, and self-hosted use. The project directs users to its wiki troubleshooting page and GitHub issue tracker for support and issue reports.
