What Globestudio is, how to embed it, and the API surface for customizing it.

Embed#

Drop a dotted globe into any web page with an iframe. The /embed route is the canvas-only build: no panel, no chrome, no marketing nav. Sized to whatever wrapper you put it in.

html
<iframe
  src="https://globestudio.app/embed?look=halftone"
  width="640"
  height="480"
  style="border: 0;"
  loading="lazy"
  title="Globestudio dotted globe"
></iframe>

Pick any preset by id (halftone, aurora, risograph…) or pass a full config via ?c=<URL-encoded JSON> for a customized embed.

React component#

No install. Paste it into any React/Next.js/Astro/Remix project:

jsx
// Drop-in React component. No install, just paste.
export const Globe = ({ look = "halftone", width = 640, height = 480 }) => (
  <iframe
    src={`https://globestudio.app/embed?look=${look}`}
    width={width}
    height={height}
    style={{ border: 0 }}
    loading="lazy"
    title="Globestudio dotted globe"
  />
);

// Use it:
<Globe look="aurora" width={800} height={600} />

Script-tag loader#

For Webflow, Framer, plain HTML, anywhere you can drop a <script> tag:

html
<!-- One-line script-tag loader. Drops a div anywhere on the page
     and reads data-look / data-config attributes from it. -->
<div data-globestudio data-look="risograph" style="height:480px"></div>
<script src="https://globestudio.app/embed.js" async></script>

Step-by-step setup for Webflow, Framer, Figma, Notion, WordPress and more lives on the Integrations page.

Share URLs#

Every customization can be encoded into a URL. From the export dialog (D), the Share tab gives you a ?c=<encoded> link that restores your exact canvas state on someone else's machine.

The encoded payload follows the config JSON schema, so it's autocomplete-friendly in any editor that respects $schema.

Keyboard shortcuts#

  • SShuffle to a random look
  • []Cycle preset (prev / next)
  • +−0Zoom in / out / reset
  • GToggle globe ↔ flat view
  • HHide or show the control panel
  • DOpen the export dialog
  • RReset to defaults
  • ⌘KOpen the command palette
  • ?Show keyboard shortcuts dialog
  • EscClose popovers and dialogs

Preset catalog#

21 looks ship in the box. Each has its own /looks/:id route with a dedicated OG card and SEO copy.

Config schema#

Exported config files (and the ?c=… share encoding) follow the JSON Schema published at globestudio.app/schema/config.json. VS Code, Cursor, and WebStorm read the $schema field and provide autocomplete + validation when you open a downloaded config.

The look-preset shape (for community preset PRs) has a separate schema at globestudio.app/schema/look-preset.json, enforced by src/data/look-presets.test.js in CI.
