About Mapbox Studio

Mapbox Studio is Mapbox's web application for designing map styles. You control colours, typography, road widths and point-of-interest density through sliders and components, add your own fonts, icons and textures, and combine 3D styling with sky effects without writing code. You can also import your own data to make choropleths and scaled point maps.

Finished styles are used through the Mapbox SDKs for iOS, Android, the web and embedded devices. The newer Data Workbench handles uploading, editing and publishing custom geospatial data. It suits designers and developers who already build on Mapbox.
