Interactive Equidistant Mapequidistant map for HAM Radio Applicationradio application

Our local HAM Radio Club is currently using a Google Map for our rotor direction visualization software, here is an example of our app: https://linkpaste.org/visu/

enter image description here

Now - for obvious reasons - I want to change the projection of the map to an azimuthal equidistant one but have struggled a lot trying to implement a different projection on Google Maps... (tried with proj4, no luck, the official documentation only provides some code for a Gall-Peters Projection: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/map-projection-simple)

I am willing to switch to some other library/software (mapnik, leaflet.js, openlayersOpenLayers...)

This is what I need

  1. The map should be interactiveinteractive (zoomable, can drag around, etc.)
  2. theThe map should have a fixed center which I can definefixed center which I can define (our current position)
  3. theThe projection must be equidistantequidistant
  4. The map should have basic namesbasic names for countries, cities, etc.

I have found NS6T's Equidistant Azimuth Map generator, but I need an interactive map not just a background image or pdfPDF...

I also found this tool which kind of illustrates what I need, but it lacks any country or city names, it's just a basic shape of Europe.

Basically, something like a normal Google Map or Open Street map, but with Equidistant projection, would be ideal! Basically, something like a normal Google Map or Open Street Maps, but with Equidistant projection, would be ideal.

KindlyCan you point me in the right direction. Thanks!?
