About this template
What it is for, and who should skip it.
What you would actually use this for
You would use this template to launch a viral advertising experiment like the Million Dollar Homepage on a 3D sphere. It works as a niche directory where startups or individuals pay to feature their logo and link on specific geographic coordinates. A project founder might open this on a Tuesday to see which regions are trending or to confirm that a high-tier Beacon purchase has successfully updated the map visuals for a new sponsor.
What you would change first
The first edit for most users is providing their own Stripe API keys in the environment settings to enable live transactions. You will also likely ask the chat to update the site metadata and headers to match your specific project name. Many users then adjust the base price of the units to fit their target audience, whether setting them to one dollar for a casual community project or much higher for a professional ad board.
When to skip it
Skip this template if you need a standard flat map for a store locator or a traditional business directory without the bidding mechanics. It is not built for high-precision GIS tasks or complex data visualization beyond the coordinate-based claiming system. If you do not want to use Stripe for payments, you will need to ask the chat to wire up a different provider or remove the checkout logic entirely.
