2,408 PointsI want to make a clickable world map like this :
I want to attach to my website (that is currently in development) , a world map that will be displayed on the whole screen (not just only in a window) . I have in mind a very clear ideea and vision about how it should look,but I don't know what should I star learning to make it happen, I will write a short description : -I want it to display the whole world map on first appeareance (plain 2D).
-When you hover over a region I want it to outline the continents .
-On click to zoom in the specific continent clicked .
-Again on hover to show the countries .
-On click to zoom in the specific country clicked.
-On "country view" to show the cities as (bullets) according to their real POSITION .
-The possibility to enter the website from the country/city overview.
-Content loaded on the homepage(of the website not the map) according to the selection of the user on the world map .
I an new to JavaScript , I've learned a little bit of Jquery and know basic stuff about js(beginer stuff) , can someone please tell me how can I build it : What specific part of JS should I use ? JSON,AJAX,Jquery,AngularJS,Nodejs,Gulp ? Or there are other langauages that I should learn in order to make my vision a reality .
