Use your mouse to drag and zoom in and out! Discover points of interest around any given location. Highly customizable layer styling with Mapbox Styles support. Connect to any public or private vector tile server. Or just use the supplied and optimized OSM2VectorTiles based one. Work offline and discover local VectorTile/MBTiles. Compatible with most Linux and OSX terminals. Highly optimized algorithms for a smooth experience. 100% pure JavaScript! Arrows up, down, left, right to scroll around. Press a or z to zoom in and out. Press c to switch to block character mode, and press q to quit.
