TileMill is a modern map design studio powered by Node.js and Mapnik.
- TileMill is tested on Linux with Node 8.11.3 LTS, and on MacOS 10.14 with Node 8.15.0 lts/carbon
- TileMill currently only works in server mode, there is no standalone GUI. Your browser is used for the interface.
- There are no native packages provided. Installation requires cloning this repo. See details below under Installation.
- Tilemill should theoretically work on the Windows platform, but it isn't tested.
- Mapnik > v3.6.2 (but may work on earlier versions)
- Node.js: (earlier Node.js versions may work, but are not tested)
- Ubuntu: v8.11.x
- OSX: v8.15.x lts/carbon
- Protobuf: Ubunto: these need to be installed: libprotobuf-lite and protoc
git clone https://github.com/tilemill-project/tilemill.git
cd tilemill
nvm install lts/carbon
nvm use v8.15.0
npm install
npm start
Scripts have been created that will do most everything for you. They were written for MacOS, but may still be usable for Ubunto and Windows with some modification. (If you are successful with Ubunto and Windows, please post an Issue to let us know!)
Installation Script Instructions
Full Installation instructions can be found in the TileMill Documentation.
