# Example 1: Basic Map
In this example, we'll learn how to create a **basic React app** with a map component using the [utopia-ui](https://github.com/utopia-os/utopia-ui) library.
### Setting Up the Project
We'll use **Vite** to create an empty React app named **"1-static-map"**:
```shell
npm create vite@latest 1-static-map -- --template react-ts
```
Next, we navigate into our project folder and install the [utopia-ui](https://github.com/utopia-os/utopia-ui) package:
```shell
cd 1-static-map
npm install utopia-ui
```
### Implementing the Map
Now, we open `src/App.tsx` and replace its content with the following:
```tsx
import { UtopiaMap } from "utopia-ui";
function App() {
return (
<UtopiaMap center={[50.6, 9.5]} zoom={5} height="100dvh" width="100dvw" />
);
}
export default App;
```
### Running the Application
To see our **first map app**, we start the development server:
```shell
npm run dev
```
Now, we can open [localhost:5173](http://localhost:5173/) in the browser and explore our interactive map! 😊
➡️ In [Example 2](../2-static-layers/), we'll add **static data** to our map.
