Can I use Captivate to create an interactive navigable map?
Hello, our annual conference next fall will be on a 300-acre resort and I would like to help people find their way around. I’d like to build into our conference app an interactive map with about a dozen points of interest. When a person touches one of them, it might bring up a photo and description, but above all, it should show where they are in relation to the place and help them make their way there. I would want this to run inside of our own app, so it would need to be run as a JSON service, javaScript, or HTML5.
I suspect that this might be a good job for Captivate and perhaps I might even hire a specialist here to help me create it. Am I on the right track here…?

You certainly could do this using Captivate but I’d be more inclined to do it in straight html/js or even something like Adobe Animate (which provides cleaner/lighter output). Regardless of the dev tool it’ll still be deployed as html/js but if you want clean code and maintainability by any web dev in the future then you’ll want to avoid Captivate for this.
