Map
An interactive MapLibre GL map with free CARTO light/dark basemaps (no API key) that flip with the theme, plus a declarative-children contract for markers, popups, routes, arcs, clusters and a heatmap.
Preview
Paris
City of Light
This map requires MapLibre GL. Run `npm install maplibre-gl`; until the bundle loads, a labelled placeholder is shown. Free CARTO basemaps flip with the theme — no API key.
Controls
Device view renders in an isolated frame so real responsive breakpoints apply. Switch to Full for overflowing popovers.
Installation
php artisan ui:add map
Behavior layer (Alpine)
This component installs a self-registering Alpine module to
resources/js/ui/map.js. Import the behavior layer once
from your bundle so it loads (it hooks alpine:init):
import './map.js';

Guidance
Geospatial viewSupport a decision that depends on geography or distance.
Use when
- Use when geography, route, clustering, or distance meaningfully affects decisions. Do not use a map as decoration when location is not central to the task.
Avoid when
- Only use when location changes the decision, not as decorative scenery.
- Task length
- medium
- Interaction cost
- high
- Interruptiveness
- none
- Input precision
- none
- Mobile / touch risk
- high
- Accessibility risk
- high
- Needs background context
- No
- Comparison needed
- Yes
Preferred alternatives
- Location list or distance table
Anti-patterns
- Using a map as decorative scenery

Usage
<div class="space-y-4">
<x-ui.map :center="[2.3522, 48.8566]" :zoom="11" height="420px" label="{{ __('Paris') }}">
<x-ui.map-controls position="top-right" show-zoom show-compass show-fullscreen />
<x-ui.map-marker :lng="2.3522" :lat="48.8566" color="primary" :label="__('Paris')">
<x-slot:popup>
<p class="font-medium text-foreground">{{ __('Paris') }}</p>
<p class="text-muted-foreground">{{ __('City of Light') }}</p>
</x-slot:popup>
</x-ui.map-marker>
</x-ui.map>
<p class="text-sm text-muted-foreground">
{{ __('This map requires MapLibre GL. Run `npm install maplibre-gl`; until the bundle loads, a labelled placeholder is shown. Free CARTO basemaps flip with the theme — no API key.') }}
</p>
</div>
Accessibility & localization
data-slot
Keyboard focus-visible
Localized labels
- Accessibility target: wcag-2.2-aa-target.
- Uses semantic HTML and a stable
data-slotattribute for styling/scripting hooks. - Focus-visible rings use the
ringtoken so keyboard focus is always visible. - Disabled and invalid states are conveyed to assistive tech, not by color alone.
- Targets WCAG 2.2 AA; verify contrast in light, dark, admin and customer surfaces above.
- Labels go through
__()and the component uses logical properties (ms-*,text-start,start-*) so it mirrors correctly — flip the preview to RTL to confirm.
