What is Mapbox?

Mapbox is an advanced and flexible map service that can be easily integrated into your mobile and web applications. It has some fantastic features such as Mapbox Studio, Vision, Atlas, and other commonly known SDKs. Many companies, including Facebook, Snap Inc., and Shopify, have benefitted from its mapping services.

One of the options that comes to mind is the Google Maps Platform. However, if you’re a startup entering the market a developer aiming to publish your app, on the Play Store or a student community creating solutions for your school Google Maps might become quite expensive as your user base grows. This is when alternative solutions such, as Mapbox become relevant.

Mapbox offers a decent and effective pricing structure. Even provides a free tier specifically designed for development purposes.

Maps have become an aspect of our routines. Whether you’re exploring a city looking for a coffee shop or keeping tabs on delivery maps is incredibly valuable. When it comes to creating apps incorporating maps not only improves the user experience but is also frequently necessary, for applications that rely on location-based services. If you’re developing a travel app, a fitness tracker, ride-sharing service or any other application that needs maps, for navigation and location-based details. Let’s see how we can implement maps in our Flutter application using Mapbox. A sample video is given below to get an idea about what we are going to do in this article.
