Add a custom rendered layer
This example demonstrates how to create a custom layer over the MapView using the Mapbox Maps SDK for iOS. The custom layer utilizes Metalkit, a 3D graphics pipeline for rendering the vertex and fragment shaders. This custom map style layer is then hosted by the CustomLayerHost protocol and applied to the MapView.
The custom layer is created and added to the map using the setMapStyleContent function. This function specifies which runtime styling components will be added to the style. The custom layer is then repainted with the new color scheme using the triggerRepaint() function.
iOS Examples App Available
This example code is part of the Maps SDK for iOS Examples App, a working iOS project available on Github. iOS developers are encouraged to run the examples app locally to interact with this example in an emulator and explore other features of the Maps SDK.
See our Run the Maps SDK for iOS Examples App tutorial for step-by-step instructions.
