In their own words
Pl3xMap
Pl3xMap is a free, MIT-licensed world map viewer for Minecraft servers, using the game's vanilla rendering style. It presents a top-down 2D map designed for navigation, with live updates, dimension maps, and markers or waypoints. Player markers can show yaw rotation, health and armor. Built-in render types include basic, night, biomes, inhabited and flowermap, and the browser interface uses Leaflet. The project lists CraftBukkit, Spigot, Paper, Purpur and Fabric as supported server platforms; Fabric requires Fabric API. Additional compatibility listings include Bukkit, Folia, Forge and Quilt. Pl3xMap installs as a jar in the server's plugins or mods directory and includes an internal web server that defaults to port 8080. Some server hosts restrict ports, so setup may depend on what the host permits. Integrations can hide vanished players, show world borders, or display public homes and warps. Addons can show claim areas, banners, signs, loaded mobs and player death spots, though addon support is not guaranteed. Developers can import the Pl3xMap API through Gradle or Maven; the project directs users to Discord for help.
