Mapbox Studio is the modern alternative to Mapbox Studio Classic: if you're starting out and creating a map today, we recommend starting with Mapbox Studio rather than Mapbox Studio Classic.

Desktop application for vector tile driven map design.

Install from source

git clone https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-studio-classic.git
cd mapbox-studio-classic
npm install
npm start

Depends

Mapbox Studio Classic ships with pre-built binaries for common platforms:

32 and 64 bit Windows
64 bit OS X
64 bit Linux

The minimum platforms versions are:

Windows >= 7
OS X >= 10.8
Ubuntu >= 14.04 (Trusty)
RHEL/Centos >= 7

Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise) can be supported by upgrading libstdc++:

sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
sudo apt-get update -q
sudo apt-get install -y libstdc++6

If packages like node-mapnik fail to install then you are likely running a platform for which no binaries are available. In this case you will need to build these packages from source (Feel free to create a github issue to ask for help).

You can do this like:

npm install --build-from-source

Getting started

The docs offer both a step-by-step guide to creating your first projects in Mapbox Studio Classic and detailed information about styling and creating vector sources.
