The search box on the side panel.
Format for encoding geographic data structures.

String interpolation is evaluation of a template literal and expanding/substituting the interpolation expressions / variables (${variable}) in it for the string output.

A geometry in the map that can be clicked on.

The map element in an application view. A locale is required to initialise a mapview.
Mapbox Vector Tiles. A protobuf format for vector geometries split into tiles.
A table to cache MVTiles which have already been generated by the XYZ API.
A clone of an MVT Layer. Feature properties for theming are provided from a lookup array.
A Mapp layer represented by vector tiles generated by the XYZ API.
Any JavaScript object. Usualy a set of key-values whereas the value can be nested a object.
An Open-source mapping library to render spatial data in the browser.
A JavaScript modul which can be imported dynamically to alter and expand Mapp functionality.
A SQL query with variable placeholders to be substituded by the database. Queries can be defined as templates in the workspace.

Shared identification via SAML enables use multiple systems with a single login.
JSON objects which can be combined to build complex workspace objects to define locales and layer.
A service provider which supports deployments to AWS Lambda.
The cartographic extent visible in a mapview. Usually defined by north, west, south, and east bounding lines.
A application view is a markup document (plus styles and script) which is loaded as an [website] application in a browser client. Views can be defined as templates in the workspace.
A JSON object which defines the locale, layer, and locations available through the XYZ host.
The unique qID field name for a location. The field must be defined as serial in order to add new locations to a layer table.
The node js back-end application.
