It wraps Google Maps, Mapbox, and Leaflet to provide point-field widgets\u2014both interactive (for editing locations via click or drag) and static (for read-only display)\u2014eliminating the need to build custom map UIs from scratch.\n\nThe package is configured entirely through Django settings, allowing you to customize map behavior (zoom, center, marker options) and provider-specific features (API keys, place autocomplete) without touching widget code. It handles asset collection and jQuery integration automatically in admin, and requires minimal template setup in custom views. Currently limited to PointField support across all providers, with LineString and other geometry types not yet supported.","worth_installing":"Yes. Active maintenance, no security issues, permissive license, and zero runtime dependencies make it low-risk. Install friction is minimal. Suitable if you need interactive or static point-field maps in Django admin or forms and want to avoid building custom map UIs\u2014but only if your use case is limited to PointField; other GeoDjango geometry types are not yet supported."},"id":"django-map-widgets","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-map-widgets","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-map-widgets.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/django-map-widgets/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-19","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"django-map-widgets","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Configurable and user-friendly map widgets for GeoDjango fields"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":138048,"position":11346,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.6.0"}
