CARTO VL

CARTO VL is a JavaScript library to create custom Location Intelligence applications over vector rendering.

This library is still under support but it will not be further developed. We don’t recommend starting new projects with it as it will eventually become deprecated. Instead, learn more about our current CARTO for deck.gl library here

Browser support

CARTO VL requires a browser that supports WebGL, a method of generating dynamic 3D graphics using JavaScript, accelerated through hardware.

Most modern browsers support CARTO VL, precisely:

  • Chrome latest.
  • Firefox latest.
  • Microsoft Edge latest, with the most recent Windows update.
  • Safari latest.

Some browsers only have experimental WebGL support. We cannot guarantee that CARTO VL will work on those cases. For a complete list of supported browsers, check caniuse.com. To check if your browser is compatible, open get.webgl.org.
