In this lesson, we'll add a LayersControl toggle to allow us to change between multiple TileLayer basemaps in React Leaflet. Using the NASA GIBS Blue Marble, we'll add an additional TileLayer component, wrap our two TileLayers in BaseLayer components, and wrap all of our layers in a LayersControl to toggle our basemaps.
