Challenge: Interactive choropleth of state coastline length

“

(upbeat music) - [Instructor] For this challenge, I would like you to use leaflet to create a continuous variable choropleth showing the kilometers of coastline for each of the states in a contiguous United States. I'd like you to use the viridis color palette for your choropleth and I would like you to highlight those states with zero coastline in pink and to add an appropriate label in the legend. I'd like you to also add a pop-up to the states that shows the state name and the coastline formatted in kilometers. I would like you to set the background color of the map to white and please use the provided CSS to fix the legend.
