## What it is
A React component library for creating declarative SVG map charts using d3-geo and topojson. It handles panning, zooming, and rendering optimization while leaving DOM work to React.

## Use cases
- render interactive world maps in react
- create svg map charts with markers and annotations
- visualize geographic data on a choropleth map
- add zoomable and pannable maps to a react dashboard
- build a geography quiz with an interactive map
- display country data from a topojson file

## When to choose
- you need lightweight SVG maps in a React app without pulling in the full d3 library
- you want a declarative, composable API for map charts
- you need built-in zooming, panning, and marker support
- you want maps that integrate with react-spring, react-tooltip, or styled-components

## When to avoid
- you need tile-based slippy maps (use Leaflet or Mapbox instead)
- your project is not React-based
- you need advanced GIS analysis rather than map rendering
- you require WebGL rendering for very large datasets

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: data-visualization, ui-components, charts
- domain: data-visualization, frontend, web-development
