The Roadmap

[CraigglesO]

Large scale progress tracker

Beta Phase

Sub Packages

• React
• Vue
• Svelte

Render Mechanics

• WebGPU Glyph-icon pairs not working
• WebGPU cursor interactivity for Fills not working as intended
• WebGPU cursor interactivity for Glyphs not working as intended
• Glyphs text-along-path
• WM Projection -> allow option to force minzoom to be limited to show whole map on canvas at a minimum
• WM Projection -> duplicate on the x axis
• Hash -> URL synced with map position
• Tile flush working across workers to know when tiles are fully rendered
  • Source (used by most)
  • Marker source
  • Local source
• awaitFullyRendered
• screenshot

Stability

• Zooming is smoother for WebGPU and tiles visually stay while zooming out.
• Dashed lines is bugged
• glyphs along path don't coexist with other glyphs yet.
• WebGPU sometimes tries to render deleted tiles. Rare case and doesn't seem to inhibit user interaction?
• tile duplicates on the x axis -> parent tiles don't show
• Glyphs overlap as you zoom in (not killing parent glyphs correctly?)
• Some WebGPU Workflows can be converted to async from the painter
• Migrate the WebGL "Programs" to work the same way as "Workflows" from WebGPU
• Get unicode/LTR/substitution Zig parser out of experimental to production ready
• offscreen: false is blurrier than offscreen.
• changing screen size doesn't update view if needed

Testing

• All examples have WebGL1, WebGL2, and WebGPU tests to ensure they work before any more code is added.
  • All text/icon type tests
  • dashed lines

NOTE:

Upon completion of Beta, and before beginning work on a 1.0 release, there will be a waiting period to see if any major changes are required before deciding upon a complete product.

1.0 RELEASE

Features

• zoom out keeps children tiles
• Comments for all code
• raster fade-in from parent
• snapshot post flush
• improve zooming in webgl1 for fill just like heatmap
• webgl1 sorting fallback last doesnt work
• Style/MapOptions converter for Mapbox
• Style/MapOptions converter for Maplibre
• S2 Clustering
• Hillshade works correctly for 512x512 images
• Unicode parsing via Zig module Completed
• Glyphs Alpha fading
• move mouse position over canvas and get visual changes
• Fill pattern -> support scaling the image

API

• getBounds/setBounds
• getMaxBounds/setMaxBounds
• setProjection/getProjection
• addSource/deleteSource
• addLayer/deleteLayer/updateLayer
• getStyle
• getFeatureState/DeleteFeatureState/setFeatureState

Build

• Support a single file build that can use offscreen canvas new Worker(new URL(..., import.meta.url), { ... })
• NodeJS/Bun local builds for webgpu
• A foundation for native.

Stability

• TODO - fill this section correctly
• Webgpu Glyph filtering doesn't properly follow a robust ordered pattern like webgl does
• Testing pipeline via actions (after release for free github actions, but first to fix)
• zooming towards cursor is a bit off for both cases.
