A free and open visual editor for the [Mapbox GL styles](https://www.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-style-spec/)
targeted at developers and map designers. Creating your own custom map is easy with **Mapital**.
*Mapital is an early prototype and is under development*.
## Reasons for building a Mapbox GL Style Editor
Mapbox GL is one of the biggest innovations the GIS world and is the first cross platform framework to display maps on the [browser](https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-js), [mobile applications and the desktop](https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-native). Maps are styled using a JSON style document with properties described in the [Mapbox GL style specification](https://www.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-style-spec/). The style specification is adopted in more and more clients such as Open Layers 3 and therefore the **missing piece in the puzzle is a style editor that is easy to use, free and open source!**
