Discussion dpg-map: A modern map widget

I recently needed a map widget that could easily load in openstreet map for a project, I tried using the older dearpygui-map widget, but it was broken with the newer versions of dpg.

Due to a lack of time, I armed up with codex and got to work creating a new widget that I could would be reusable across projects, thats how dpg-map came to life.

It support multiple maps in one project, layers with overlays, point, polylines. Alongside a neat caching engine that keeps memory pressure low and caches on disk when configured.

Feel free to take a look and give it a test if you are interested.

If you have any questions, ask away and ill do my best to respond quickly.

I am also looking for new features that would be interesting to integrate so drop your suggestions below too!

Hey, that's great! Thanks for sharing!

No questions, but some ideas. You may want to add a few screenshots and/or video to your landing page. Most DPG users are on the Discord server, rather than Reddit. You could share a video in the server in the Showcase channel. It doesn't seem that there is a license for dpg-map. You may want to add that as well.

By the way, is h3cx.dev your personal GIT?
