Usage

import { parseTmx } from "parse-tmx";
// The *.tmx file can be loaded as a string or URL encoded data
import map from "map.tmx";

// Translates the tile flips in the layer data (default: false)
const translateFlips = true;

const loadMap = async () => {
  const data = await parseTmx(map, translateFlips);
  ...
};
