Leaflet is a modern open-source JavaScript library for **mobile-friendly interactive maps**.
|
|
It is developed by [Vladimir Agafonkin][] with a team of dedicated [contributors][].
|
|
Weighing just about 27 KB of gzipped JS code, it has all the [features][] most developers ever need for online maps.
|
|
|
|
Leaflet is designed with *simplicity*, *performance* and *usability* in mind.
|
|
It works efficiently across all major desktop and mobile platforms out of the box,
|
|
taking advantage of HTML5 and CSS3 on modern browsers while being accessible on older ones too.
|
|
It can also be extended with many [plugins][],
|
|
has a beautiful, easy to use and [well-documented][] API
|
|
and a simple, readable [source code][] that is a joy to [contribute][] to.
|
|
|
|

|
|
We're happy to meet new contributors.
|
|

Let's make the best open-source library for maps that can possibly exist!
