+### Fullscreen kiosk map
+
+Open `/static/kiosk.html` or `/map?kiosk=1` for a fullscreen live map without the
+site header or footer. Kiosk mode shares the live map's layers, channel filters,
+packet activity, and compact node inspector. Map position parameters (`lat`, `lng`,
+and `zoom`) also work with kiosk mode.
