Interactive web map built with Leaflet & jQuery

I wanted to share a web map application I built with Leaflet.js and jQuery. Taking the JavaScript and CSS courses definitely helped me in developing this.

Great job! :+1:

I'd not seen Leaflet before (that I know of) but it's super cool. Did you learn about it here?

I learned about it through my day job (mapping profession). I basically taught myself it from the API reference, stackoverflow, blogs, etc. It's pretty easy to learn though. I used a "framework" a friend showed me that uses Bootstrap and jQuery. I have some links below.

MapBox is a pretty popular mapping platform that uses Leaflet.

I already looked up leaflet. But thanks for the pointer to "bootleaf". I'll investigate both when I have a chance.

Meanwhile I'll ask the guys over in our mapping department if they work with and/or know about both of them.
