2024: The year of the OpenStreetMap vector maps
You can download an extract of your country from Geofabrik, run it through Tilemaker (https://github.com/systemed/tilemaker) to get a nice mbtiles file, and then use the built-in Ruby server to give you something you can load in your web-browser locally.

How The Post is replacing Mapbox with open source solutions
I ran into this solution last week on HN and decided to give it a try. The pipeline that got me up and running was geofabrik osm.pbf[0] downloads, pass those into tilemaker[1] to create mbtiles, and then pass those into pmtiles[2] to make the pmtiles.

Can I render tiles directly from osm.pbf data without a database?
If you do vector tiles instead of raster, you could use tilemaker: https://github.com/systemed/tilemaker

Offline imagery from another navigation apps.
Try to convert by GDAL files from geofabrik, ogr2ogr make my laptop hurt, but not tiles. Found tilemaker, looks better, but i get only markers, not images.

MBTiles is also a format that is supported more and more, something like tilemaker can help you with that. https://github.com/systemed/tilemaker

Are there any vector MBTiles provider apart from Maptiler?
I'm trying to build offline maps for my app and I've figured out the app part. Now all thats left is getting the MBTiles file for all regions of the world and host it on my own somewhere. I tried to generate these files myself using [tilemaker](https://github.com/systemed/tilemaker) but I soon realised that with my limited computing power it would take forever to process 50GB worth of files for the entire planet.

5 JavaScript mapping APIs compared
Leaflet stands out as one of the top open source JavaScript libraries for crafting interactive maps. Optimized for both mobile and web devices, it is relatively small (around 42KB) and offers a ton of features, plugins, and a straightforward API. It works across all browsers and platforms.

Shots: Create Mockups
Finding maplibre 'better' was more valid at the time than today, and is also subjective. The creators and maintainers of both libraries have done some great work (and are still doing so).
Back in January 2022, the stable version of leaflet, v1.7.1, was from September 2020, and was affected by some small bugs degrading the user experience. Although the release of following version seemed close, there was no clear schedule for it, and I had concerns about how maintained the library would remain.
As of today, the bug from 2015 where there is some white space between map tiles on fractional zoom levels [0] is still open.
Also, leaflet was a pain to integrate in Svelte Kit framework, because it depended on `window` and-or `document`, not available at server side.
Maplibre, on the other hands, with a feature set roughly equivalent to Leaflet, benefited from much more frequent releases, and seemed more stable across browsers and devices. It was also easier to make it work in Svelte kit.

Ask HN: When building with complex maps do you go with GMaps, Mapbox, OSM?
None of those things are what most in the GIS space would consider "complex", so you could go with any of the options you selected. For lightweight maps, I like Leaflet
