* [ios, macos] Introduced more ergonomic expression concatenation syntax * [ios, macos] Fixed mgl_join: * [ios, macos] Simplified expression document headings * [ios, macos] Documented mgl_join: * [ios, macos] Convert length operator to length: for strings Only works for literal strings. * [ios, macos] Implemented type conversion using CAST() * [ios, macos] Aftermarket let expressions * [ios, macos] Refactored aftermarket expression functions Refactored the installation of aftermarket expression functions to use macros. It is no longer necessary to handwrite the type encoding of a function. Also added aftermarket functions for interpolating and stepping. * [ios, macos] Updated documentation, tests, demo apps * [ios, macos] Added generic expression function * [ios, macos] Add MGL_MATCH function placeholder. * [ios, macos] Add MGL_SWITCH expression operator. * [ios, macos] Add mgl_coalesce: as expression function. * [ios, macos] Update style documentation. * [ios, macos] Add conventional custom function support. * [ios, macos] Updated example code * [ios, macos] Add mgl_coalesce conventional custom function support. * [ios, macos] Add aftermarket function to 'has' operator. * [ios, macos] Add documentation for lookup and feature operators. * [ios, macos] Documented simple lookup * [ios, macos] Renamed, reversed has expression Renamed mgl_hasProperty:properties: to mgl_does:have: for better readability and consistency with the conventional mgl_has: function. Documented both forms of mgl_has:. * [ios, macos] Restored OEM conditionals where available This is the preferred syntax for simple conditionals on iOS 9 and above, because you can inline the predicate instead of wrapping it in a constant value expression, which means you can write a conditional in a single format string. * [ios, macos] Update style docs.

Mapbox GL Native
A library for embedding interactive, customizable vector maps into native applications on multiple platforms. It takes stylesheets that conform to the Mapbox Style Specification, applies them to vector tiles that conform to the Mapbox Vector Tile Specification, and renders them using OpenGL. Mapbox GL JS is the WebGL-based counterpart, designed for use on the Web.
The Mapbox GL ecosystem
This repository hosts the cross-platform Mapbox GL Native library, plus convenient SDKs for several platforms. The cross-platform library comes with a GLFW-based demo application for Ubuntu Linux and macOS. The SDKs target the usual languages on their respective platforms:
| SDK | Languages | Build status |
|---|---|---|
| Mapbox GL Native | C++14 |   |
| Mapbox Maps SDK for Android | Java | |
| Mapbox Maps SDK for iOS | Objective-C or Swift |  |
| Mapbox Maps SDK for macOS | Objective-C, Swift, or AppleScript |  |
| node-mapbox-gl-native | Node.js | |
| Mapbox Qt SDK | C++03 | |
Additional Mapbox GL Native–based libraries for hybrid applications are developed outside of this repository:
| Toolkit | Android | iOS | Developer |
|---|---|---|---|
| React Native (npm) | ✅ | ✅ | Mapbox |
| Apache Cordova (npm) | ✅ | ✅ | Telerik |
| NativeScript (npm) | ✅ | ✅ | Telerik |
| Xamarin | ✅ | ✅ | Xamarin |
If your platform or hybrid application framework isn’t listed here, consider embedding Mapbox GL JS using the standard Web capabilities on your platform.
