Overview

If you’re working with maps in a React application and facing issues with markers overlapping when zooming in, the react-leaflet-markercluster package is a game changer. It’s a React wrapper for Leaflet’s marker cluster functionality, enabling you to easily group multiple markers that are close to each other. This not only enhances the visual experience but also provides a cleaner interface for users interacting with your map.

The implementation is straightforward. By using the <MarkerClusterGroup /> component, you can nicely encapsulate your markers or clusterable regions. This feature is particularly useful in applications that involve a significant number of markers, ensuring that the map remains user-friendly and accessible.
