## What it is
A command-line tool that renders high-resolution interactive maps of Minecraft Java Edition worlds, generating static HTML and image tiles displayed with Leaflet. It supports day/night lighting, cave rendering, and mineral overlays, with incremental caching for fast re-renders.

## Use cases
- render a minecraft world map
- generate interactive map of my minecraft server
- create zoomable map of minecraft world for website
- view caves and minerals on a minecraft map
- share minecraft world map with players online

## When to choose
- you need high-resolution, deep-zoom maps of Minecraft Java Edition worlds
- you want a static output you can host on any web server
- you need cave rendering, lighting modes, or mineral overlays

## When to avoid
- you need active maintenance or bug fixes - the project is explicitly unmaintained
- you play Minecraft Bedrock Edition or other non-Java world formats
- you want a live, dynamically updating map server (consider BlueMap instead)
