Waze CH Developers
This section is for developers of Waze scripts for the Swiss community. Two paths:
- Contribute to the WME Switzerland Helper, the community's flagship script (official Swiss layers and data in the WME).
- Create and maintain your own standalone script for Switzerland.
The code conventions apply to both.
Looking to *use* a script?
To install and configure scripts as an editor, see Scripts and tools in the Editors section. Here, we talk about coding.
The WME Switzerland Helper
The community's flagship script: a TypeScript userscript, bundled with Rollup, tested with Vitest, translated via i18next. It relies on the official WME SDK (wme-sdk-typings) and on Turf.js for geometry.
What it brings to the editor: official Swiss layers (municipal and cantonal boundaries from swisstopo, geographic names from swissNAMES3D), public transport data (SBB stops with official names) and street-name checking against Swiss conventions.
- Contributing to the Helper: prerequisites, dev environment and Pull Request flow.
- Helper architecture: startup flow, layer model, code map.
- Adding a layer to the Helper: concrete end-to-end walkthrough.
Contributors
The Helper is maintained by the Swiss community. Thanks to its contributors:
Your own script
- Creating a standalone script: start, host, publish and share your own script with the community.
For both
- Code conventions: WME SDK, style, i18n, changelog.
