You seem to be at the pont where beginner tutorials dip down and advanced tutorials pick up (and are currently experiencing the general lack of intermediate level tutorials), so I think what I'd recommend doing actually is just "building stuff". I know that's an unsatisfying answer though, so maybe I can point you towards some specific things that are necessary in most web applications, that way as you're "building stuff" you have some specific goals to work towards learning.

In no particular order:

• AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript And XML)

  • To quote MDN (which, by the way, is a fantastic resource: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/) "In a nutshell, it is the use of the XMLHttpRequest object to communicate with servers. It can send and receive information in various formats, including JSON, XML, HTML, and text files."

Offline Leaflet Maps (should carry over to Mapbox too)

Image setup

1. Take a screenshot of the map in the position you need it in (ideally this shot would contain all sections of map that are relevant to the visualization)
   • Open the page in fullscreen and remove all elements that obstruct the map view, then screenshot
2. Get the coordinates of the current view's bounding box
   1. Open devtools in a separate window. Make sure the map is still fullscreened.
      • This is important because otherwise the window size will be different than the screenshot size
   2. In the console, run map.getBounds()
