Mapbox GL
The "GL" in Mapbox GL JS refers to Mapbox GL, a graphics library that renders 2D and 3D Mapbox maps as dynamic visual graphics with OpenGLin any compatible web browser, without using additional plugins.
Client-side rendering
Mapbox GL JS relies on client-side rendering. Mapbox GL JS maps are dynamically rendered by combining vector tiles with style rules in the browser rather than on a server, which makes it possible to change the maps's style and displayed data in response to user interaction.
The Map class
The mapboxgl.Mapclass is the basis of every Mapbox GL JS project. The example code in this section demonstrates the minimum you need to add a map to your page: 1. accessToken: This Mapbox access tokenassociates your Mapbox GL JS map with a Mapbox account. 2. container: The HTML element in which the map will be placed. In the example above, this element is the with an ID of "map". 3. style: The style URL of the map style being used to determine which tilesets the map includes and how the...
Mapbox GL JS works well with many other Mapbox tools. You can use your own data in a map, create your own custom map style, add interactivity, and more.
When you create a map with Mapbox GL JS, it automatically includes attribution on the bottom right corner of the map. For additional display options, see the API documentation for AttributionControl. For more details on what kinds of attribution Mapbox requires and why, see the Attributionguide.

Jul 22, 2024 · With GL JS v3, we’re loading parts of the library dynamically and only when needed, avoiding the performance costs of features that aren’t being used. As a result, we can deliver best-in-class performance whether you’re loading a lightweight 2D map or our latest Mapbox Standard 3D style.
Mapbox GL JS is a JavaScript library for interactive, customizable vector maps on the web. It takes map styles that conform to the Mapbox Style Specification, applies them to vector tiles that conform to the Mapbox Vector Tile Specification, and renders them using WebGL.
Interactive, thoroughly customizable maps in the browser, powered by vector tiles and WebGL - mapbox/mapbox-gl-js
