In January 2025, Paul Williams delivered dark mode basemap support for the Greater-London-Authority/ldn-viz-tools repository, focusing on enhancing user experience in low-light conditions. He refactored the existing Map component using Svelte and MapLibre GL JS, enabling theme-based toggling between light and dark basemaps. By extracting core MapLibre functionality into an internal component, Paul improved code organization and maintainability. His approach integrated theming with the app’s frontend architecture, leveraging TypeScript and CSS to ensure consistent styling. This work reduced regression risk and established a modular foundation, making future enhancements to the map subsystem more straightforward and reliable for the team.
