Kepler.gl - any chance we can revise to use this as a backend

[mdav43]

Thanks @simonw for a great tool. I've played with this (maybe not as the tool intended) as a tool to aggregate all my "life data" into one db. I use cluster map as a great display tool, and I attempted to create a Kepler.gl plugin - but I'm not a programmer by trade. If I get anywhere I will post up.

Would be a great plugin - given the variety of maps that Kepler gl is able to produce and the performance.

I have over 3 million gps points that I have plotted on some charts (Kepler.gl is able to handle them well). Would be great to integrate them into datasette as well.

If someone with more of a clue has the time and inclination, its got a well documented plugin structure here: https://docs.kepler.gl/docs/api-reference

deck.gl is a lower level alternative that I've had great results with. Since @simonw tweeted https://x.com/simonw/status/989048848357253120 , support has been added for a variety of other map layers including maplibre.
