# Changing the Background Map Tiles

You can create a range of custom background maps through [Mapbox](https://www.mapbox.com)'s studio interface, and export the public style URL. In `map-config.js`, you can add a new Mapbox map style URL in the `styling` parameter, as shown below.

```javascript
const styling = {
    mapStyle: 'mapbox://styles/dhalpern/ckp07gekw2p2317phroaarzej'
}
```
