[Question] What is the future of nebula.gl with respect to react-map-gl version ^7.0.0?

Open jessekrubin opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

The latest version of react-map-gl has many breaking changes but it lets you use the mapbox-gl-draw, so I am wondering what is the future of nebual.gl with respect to the latest version of react-map-gl?

Your question seems to make the assumption that map-gl-draw and nebula.gl are mostly equivalent when used with react-map-gl and that nebula.gl would no longer be needed. That is not correct:

  • If you are using react-map-gl, and you need nebula.gl special capabilities (such as performantly editing very large geometries etc) you will still want to use nebula.gl.

  • Also if you are already using deck.gl with react-map-gl, nebula.gl integration is very convienent.

  • That said, if you just need minimal editing capabilities you can always go with the mapbox plugin.

PS - I just opened the discussion tab, feel free to continue discussions there, so we can keep issues for actual problems.
