D3 Composite Projections updates

I first published the d3-composite-projections library quite a long time ago after a nice talk with a journalist that wanted to create Spanish election maps using d3. I kept adding some projections from time to time, but didn’t write any update about it. So here is the last status of the project:

• TypeScript support: The library is still written in JavaScript, but I added the index.d.ts declaration file and now it can be used in TypeScript projects
• getCompositionBorders is only practical with SVG, so a drawCompositionBorders has been added to use Canvas without using Canvas2D, not always available
• There are new projections. The list is the following:
  • USA: geoAlbersUSA. The original composite projection also available in the d3-geo library, but with the boundaries.
  • USA Territories: geoAlbersUsaTerritories as albersUsa, but adding the American Samoa, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam and Northern Marianas Islands, so all the Congressional Districts are represented
  • France: geoConicConformalFrance
  • Portugal: geoConicConformalPortugal
  • Spain: geoConicConformalSpain
  • Netherlands geoConicConformalNetherlands
  • Europe: geoConicConformalEurope (thought for Eurostat data)
  • Japan: geoConicEquidistantJapan
  • Ecuador: geoMercatorEcuador
  • Chile: geoTransverseMercatorChile, including the Chilean Antarctic Territory
  • Malaysia: geoMercatorMalaysia, created with the help of Saiful Azfar Ramlee
  • Equatorial Guinea: geoMercatorEquatorialGuinea
  • United Kingdom: geoAlbersUk
  • Denmark: geoTransverseMercatorDenmark

The library has currently about 20k weekly downloads, which is much more than I expected. I still find some countries with distant lands, so will keep updating!
