Make it clear in the UI which map renderer is being used for each map pane #146

Closed ebrelsford closed 1 year ago

ebrelsford commented 1 year ago

Part of stamen/carto-tools#67.

A user should be able to determine which map renderer is in use for each map they're looking at.

Currently it isn't obvious to the user which map renderer is being used to display a map. This is a setting in the configuration file, but not everyone has access to that file and it's not very convenient to refer back to that file.

The only information the user sees right now is the name of the map style, as defined in the configuration file:

We should make a way for users to optionally find out which renderer is in use.

Closing in favor of #147--we'll handle the solution to both issues the same way.
