You're right by definition - TileMill doesn't serve maps. Right now it generates them, and TileStream serves generated maps. It's extremely fast and stable, but inherently limiting. That's not to say this won't change in the future :)

Thanks for releasing a "native" app for OSX! This makes it much easier to use TileMill. The previous installation method was not the most user friendly--this coming from a Node.js developer.

  Glad you like the Mac app. We're definitely shooting for a first class OS X app experience. Feedback on ways to improve it further are welcome, too.

    Did you package it yourself or used some package/library?
    - incanus77 15y ago
      We packaged it ourselves. It's open source, too. Check out https://github.com/mapbox/tilemill/tree/master/platforms/osx https://github.com/mapbox/tilemill/tree/master/platforms/osx

Is the server open sourced?
- tmcw 15y ago
  Yep, https://github.com/mapbox/tilestream https://github.com/mapbox/tilestream There is a TileStream Hosting service that has integration with a CDN & DropBox, stats, etc. It uses the open version and just adds glue code to services.
