Add markers to a web map with a symbol layer | Mapbox GL JS

This example draws points from a GeoJSON collection to a map.

Upon loading, the map uses loadImage to add an image to the application, addSource to add a collection of points to the application, and then addLayer to draw the image on the map at each point location.
