Maps, schemes and Compose
summary
The talk examines using Compose Multiplatform (Compose for desktop/JS) to render maps and graphics using the maps-kt project (github.com/SciProgCentre/maps-kt). It digs into less common Compose APIs to see how they handle custom drawing and whether they are practical for desktop development, and also touches on challenges of implementing cartography.
