## about ## about
`onyx/scry` is a lightweight map annotation and location data management and sharing tool built using [leaflet](https://leafletjs.com) and [typescript](https://typescriptlang.org). It is intended as a standalone tool to generate, manage, and share simple location data in the form of points, circles, and polygons. All of these have associated titles and descriptions and can be easily imported from or exported to JSON format for easy sharing. All data is saved locally via the `localStorage` API, and the only network calls are those to retrieve either the streetmap or satellite tile data. `onyx/scry` is a lightweight map annotation and location data management and sharing tool built using [leaflet](https://leafletjs.com) and [typescript](https://typescriptlang.org).
