Built-in Themes
pitchmappr ships with 36 built-in themes: 25 regular themes for standard map views and 11 focus themes for the single-country isolation mode. All built-in themes are presets that cannot be edited or deleted. They serve as ready-to-use styles and as starting points for understanding what's possible before creating custom themes.
(The Base Style dropdown also lists the five raw base flavors — Default Light, Default White, Default Grayscale, Default Dark, and Default Black. Those are the unstyled Protomaps flavors the themes below build on, not presets in their own right.)
Regular Themes (25)
| Theme | Base | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Slate Grey | white | Borders-only map with no visible roads (roads:0). Earth is slate (#e8e8ea), water is white. Designed for clean data presentations where only political boundaries and labels matter. Prominent boundaries (1.5x width). |
| Slate Grey (blue water) | white | Slate-grey earth with muted blue water. Previously named "Slate Finance". Restrained and data-focused, for financial presentations. |
| Slate | white | True neutral grey with features still clearly visible — no warm or cool tint. Clean and professional; a safe default that works almost anywhere. |
| Clean Minimal | white | Reduced-detail map with thin roads (0.7x) and subtle boundaries (0.8x). Hides most labels and POIs. Designed for presentations where the data (markers) should be the focus, not the map detail. |
| Clean Minimal Warm | light | Warm-toned variant of Clean Minimal using the light (warm) base. Same reduced detail but with warmer earth and water colors. |
| Clean Minimal Dark | dark | Dark-background variant of Clean Minimal. Thin roads (0.6x), subtle boundaries (0.8x). Designed for dark-themed presentations. |
| Flat Grey | white | Flat, low-contrast grey palette with soft borders. Previously named "Monochrome Ink". |
| Flat Grey (blue water) | white | Modern flat/tech aesthetic — ultra-clean, flat desaturated pastels, razor-thin roads, generous whitespace. Previously named "Flat Design". |
| White Paper | white | Very clean white background with minimal styling. Designed as a blank canvas where markers and data stand out with minimal map interference. |
| Warm Parchment | light | Warm earth tones creating a parchment/atlas aesthetic. Roads at 0.8x, boundaries at 1.2x. Evokes traditional cartography. |
| Finance | white | Ultra-minimal finance map — ALL landuse and roads colored the same as earth (effectively invisible). Only boundaries (0.8x) and labels remain. The most aggressive "data-only" theme, stripping the map to absolute essentials. |
| Frost | white | Cool blue/white palette evoking ice and winter. Per-type road widths. Subtle, distinctive appearance for specialized presentations. |
| Blueprint | white | High-contrast light theme with dark, clearly visible boundaries and roads. Built for print output, where subtler themes wash out. |
| Newsprint | light | Dark grey ink on warm off-white paper. Roads are mostly invisible; boundaries and labels carry the map. Highly readable. |
| Sage | light | Muted olive-green earth. Calm and nature-forward — suited to real estate, agriculture, ESG reporting, and land-use analysis. |
| Sandstone | light | Terracotta and desert warmth — sandy tan earth with rust-brown boundaries. Good for the Middle East, North Africa, the US Southwest, mining, and warm-climate real estate. |
| Lavender | white | Soft violet-grey earth; the only built-in theme using purple tones. A modern SaaS, tech, and healthcare look. |
| Soft Atlas | light | Premium editorial atlas style in the vein of National Geographic and vintage cartography. Richer natural colors and visible terrain detail, for decks about real assets. |
| ArcGIS Light | light | Light cartographic style inspired by Esri ArcGIS basemaps. Soft cream land, muted blue water, subtle green parks, warm rose roads. |
| MapTiler Light | light | Adapted from MapTiler streets-v2 light style. Per-type road widths for natural-looking road hierarchy. Full-featured with balanced detail. |
| MapTiler White | white | Adapted from MapTiler basic-v2 white style. Clean white base with per-type road widths. Good balance of detail and clarity. |
| MapTiler Toner | white | Adapted from MapTiler toner-v2 style. Stark, graphic black-and-white — black water and black roads on a white background. Newspaper-style cartography. |
| MapTiler Dark | dark | Adapted from MapTiler dataviz-dark style. Dark background with per-type road widths. Professional dark theme with good detail. |
| Midnight Blue | dark | Deep navy/blue dark theme (earth #0B1426). Per-type road widths. Creates an elegant dark appearance distinct from the standard Dark theme. |
| Dark Bronze | dark | Dark theme with warm undertones — a chocolate-brown base with bronze accents. Pairs well with gold, amber, and other warm-toned data. |
Focus Themes (11)
All focus themes share a common configuration: _focusTheme:true, _preset:true, buildingOpacity:0, poiIcons:false, and all labels hidden via layerVisibility. This ensures focus themes start with a clean slate optimized for the single-country presentation format.
| Theme | Base | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Focus White | white | Pure white mask with grey boundaries. The default focus theme — clean, professional, minimal. Uses slateGreyLight marker palette. Thin roads with prominent boundaries (1.8x). The safest choice for most presentations. |
