StoryMapJS is a pretty simple program to use, which really surprised me. Mapping programs like ArcGIS were a struggle for me to understand, and that’s what I was expecting going into StoryMap. However, the program is more like TimelineJS, but on a map. Creating slide cards was easy, and dragging and dropping locations really sped up the workflow of creating the map. I also noticed that the map could be exported as a package to host on a website or shared with anyone. I don’t see myself using this program often, but it’s definitely one to recommend to anyone doing small story mapping projects.
