🌍 Geolocation and Custom Maps
Easily integrate latitude and longitude data with mapping services, like Google Maps, to visualize countries. With the precise SVG outlines of each country, you can create interactive, detailed maps where each country is perfectly highlighted and positioned. Ideal for geolocation services, travel apps, or geographic data visualization.
🌐 Flexible Data Management
While the package doesn’t update automatically, developers can easily keep their country data up to date with a simple query update. This is perfect for applications that need to manage custom datasets or require occasional updates without full automation.
🔍 Advanced Country Search Filters
The package comes equipped with several pre-built queries, such as whereUuid, whereName, and whereIso, enabling developers to filter countries by name, ISO code (Alpha-2, Alpha-3, numeric), phone code, and more. This is ideal for building search functionalities in large-scale applications like CRMs, directories, or global marketplaces.
📞 Phone Number and ISO Validation
Validate phone numbers and country codes directly using the package's integrated data. The wherePhoneCode query allows easy validation and management of international phone numbers, making this a great fit for global platforms dealing with client or customer information.
🏴 Customizable Flag and Emoji Support
Easily display national flags using SVGs or flag emojis with the built-in functionality. This feature is perfect for applications that require country-specific branding or need to enhance the UI with flag icons in forms, profiles, or country selectors.
🚛 Shipping and Regional Searches
For applications like e-commerce platforms, the package’s geographical queries allow for advanced regional searches and filters. Use the geographical scope to quickly retrieve countries based on regions, continents, or proximity, optimizing delivery options, taxes, or regional preferences in your app.
🏴 Customizable Flags and Colors
Create visually rich applications using the emoji flags and flag color data (HEX, RGB). This is useful for building country profiles, analytics dashboards, or travel-related applications that need a custom design touch.
