+# `@superset-ui/plugin-chart-country-map`
+
+> Modern country/region choropleth chart for Apache Superset. Replaces `legacy-plugin-chart-country-map`.
+
+## Status
+
+🚧 **Work in progress** — see `SIP_DRAFT.md` in this directory for the full design rationale and implementation phases. This plugin lives in the same PR as the build pipeline that produces its data; both are currently scaffolded and being progressively fleshed out.
+
+## What it offers vs. the legacy plugin
+
+| | Legacy | New |
+|---|---|---|
+| Backend endpoint | `explore_json` | `chart/data` (modern) |
+| Disputed-region handling | Hardcoded NE editorial | Configurable per-deployment + per-chart worldview (NE `_ukr` default) |
+| Subdivisions level | Country-only | Country (Admin 0) **and** Subdivisions (Admin 1) **and** Aggregated regions |
+| Data pipeline | Jupyter notebook | Reproducible script + YAML configs (see `scripts/`) |
+| Per-deployment customization | Fork required | `superset_config.COUNTRY_MAP` block + chart-level controls |
+| Composite maps (e.g. France-with-Overseas) | Hardcoded in notebook | Declarative in `composite_maps.yaml` |
+| Regional aggregations (NUTS-1 etc.) | Hardcoded | Declarative in `regional_aggregations.yaml` |
+
+## Layout
+
+```
+src/
+  index.ts          — package entry; exports CountryMapChartPlugin and types
+  types.ts          — TypeScript types for form data + transform props
+  CountryMap.tsx    — React component; renders the SVG chart
+  plugin/
+    index.ts        — ChartPlugin class with metadata
+    buildQuery.ts   — modern chart/data query builder
+    controlPanel.tsx— form controls (worldview, admin level, country, ...)
+    transformProps.ts — form_data → renderer props
+scripts/            — build pipeline (NE shapefile → simplified GeoJSON outputs)
+SIP_DRAFT.md        — design draft for the eventual SIP issue
