v2.0.0 — Modernization Pass

Cartographer v2.0.0 — full modernization pass.

Highlights

• Electron 41 (up from 32) with explicit sandbox mode
• Geocoding search via Nominatim replaces hardcoded city buttons — find any place by name
• Persistent markers — everything you drop is saved to localStorage and restored on next launch
• GeoJSON export / import — carry your marker collections between devices or tools
• Opt-in geolocation — "My Location" only fires when you click the button, never on load
• Dynamic routing — connect your markers with a polyline and see total distance
• Five map styles — OpenStreetMap, Topographic, Dark (CartoDB), Satellite (ESRI), Watercolor (Stadia)
• Keyboard shortcuts — / to search, M to toggle marker mode, Esc to clear
• Also runs in the browser — the same index.html is deployed at https://guildmasterdev.github.io/Cartographer via GitHub Pages

Fixes

• Replaced the dead Stamen watercolor URL (was 404-ing) with Stadia's hosted version
• Swapped the Stadia dark layer (key-required in production) for CartoDB dark_all (keyless)
• Added per-layer maxZoom so tiles no longer go gray beyond provider limits

Under the hood

• Single-file app: still no build step, no framework, no npm dependencies beyond Electron itself
• Responsive layout for narrow windows
• .gitignore so node_modules stops contaminating commits
