JavaScript library for interactive maps in browsers
About OpenLayers
OpenLayers is a JavaScript library that displays map tiles, vector data, and markers from many sources in web browsers. Self-hosting it on a small server, NAS, or VPS keeps the service available on your terms and makes backups and migrations straightforward. That makes it a practical fit for homelab users, small teams, and organizations that value privacy, ownership, and predictable costs over time.
