I have a few production apps in the GIS/mapping space and I think the big area for growth is a truly cross-platform mapping solution that works across all platforms. Right now Mapbox's (and Maplibre's) options are the closest to this, but web and the two mobile platforms still differ quite a bit, and there's only support for macOS on the desktop.

Maplibre-rs is something to keep an eye on, but it's very much a proof of concept and early going. It's using wgpu (https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu), which is a rust-based "implementation" of the WebGPU api, so to speak, which of course would support running via wasm in the browser as well as having support for pretty much all the other platforms.
