See Maps Instantly with GitHub’s Built-in GeoJSON Visualizer

Did you know GitHub isn’t just for code - it can show your maps too? 

If you upload a file in the GeoJSON format (a popular, text-based way to share map data), GitHub will instantly display it as an interactive map right in your browser without having to code anything.

Just add your .geojson file to a GitHub repo. Click it, and you’ll see your locations appear on a pan-and-zoom map. Each feature (like a city, region, or route) can be clicked for details, thanks to GeoJSON’s properties. This feature is powered by Tom MacWright's Mapbox technology under the hood.

I created a GeoJSON file from “Memoirs of My Working Life,” mapping places tied to Sir M. Visvesvaraya’s travels and achievements.
