Develop your own

Leaflet keeps it simple. If you can think of a feature that is not required by all of Leaflet users, and you can write the javascript code in a reusable way, you've got yourself a Leaflet plugin already.

There are no hard requirements on how to create your own plugin, but all developers are encouraged to read the recommendations in the plugin guide.

Once your plugin is ready, you can submit it to this list: just send a pull request with the addition to Leaflet repo's gh-pages branch (plugins.md file).
