Tile map
Countries as equal tiles, shaded by value.
Definition · Updated Nov 2, 2026
A tile map turns each country or state into an equal square placed roughly where it sits, so small places get the same room as big ones. Use it for deliveries, sales or users by country when area would mislead.
Pay once. Every update included.

One data object in the sample’s shape: a tile per country or state with a shade step, and the list rows. The docs page lists every field and links its JSON Schema; the sample data comes with the component, so you can start from it and swap in your own.
Series take the preset’s data colours in order, and states such as up, down or warning take its status colours. Change the preset in Figma or in code to recolour every chart at once.
XS, S, M and L, in light and dark. Each size is laid out again from the data, so text and lines keep their size.
Yes. It plays in when it scrolls into view, and when the data changes every mark moves from its old place to its new one. With reduced motion on, it does not move.
Yes. The React component is free in the public registry in Hearth, no token needed; Signal comes with Code and Complete. The Figma component comes with Figma and Complete.
Ask for it by name. The MCP server tells the agent what data it needs and runs the same command: npx shadcn add @chartory/tile-map. You review the diff.
