Getting Started

Let's create a simple map!

// Importing the library
import { Map } from "ol-kit";
import "ol-kit/dist/index.css";

// Import required OpenLayers types
import { XYZ as XYZSource } from "ol/source";

// Viewport options, according to https://openlayers.org/en/latest/apidoc/module-ol_View.html#~ViewOptions
const options = {
  projection: "EPSG:4326",
  center: [-43.990062, -19.873536],
  zoom: 6,
  minZoom: 5,
  maxZoom: 16
};

// Let's create a source for our basemap, in this case, Esri's World Imagery
const esriWorldImagerySource = new XYZSource({
  url:
    "https://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Imagery/MapServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}"
});

// Defining the map:
function App() {
  return (
    <Map height={"700px"} width={"100%"}>
      <Map.View options={options}></Map.View>

      {/* Add a layer using your recently created source */}
      <Map.Layer.Tile source={esriWorldImagerySource}></Map.Layer.Tile>
    </Map>
  );
}

export default App;

And... voilà, your map is up and running!
