Leaflet Addons/Plugins

[AB-xdev]

In the last time we got a few requests about "can you include Leaflet add-on XY".

Currently we have the following guideline:

• This project itself only includes the core components itself as not everyone needs all libraries / everything
• If there is reasonable interest/requests for a dependency we might create an add-on project

This issue is here to gather feedback which Leaflet Addons you/the community would like to see implemented.

It works in the following way:
Support for a Leaflet add-on can be proposed in a comment.
Please check for existing comments and give it an upvote (👍) so we can keep track of which add-on has how many upvotes.

If an Leaflet add-on has a reasonable amount of 👍 we will create a Java wrapper for it (likely in a new repository).

Hi @AB-xdev thanks for creating this new topic.
I'm still interested in having the merge done and I'm willing to make the changes to the P.R in order for them to work with the latest version.
Let me know when you've made your decision.
Thanks.

We have the requirement to export a map with markers to an image to prepare a page to be printed. So I guess it would be nice to have support for:
leaflet-easyPrint

Edit: During the last update of our app meinhofflohmarkt.de I found the request here and I'd kindly like to ask again if you'd find time to add an export function to print a map with markers. I spent some time trying to implement it myself using leafletImage and easyPrint but I'm not a frontend guy so I failed. I know that you are providing (a fantastic) open source library here but maybe you find time to look at this again. I'd be very grateful :)

This would help massively with server performance and storage:
