What are the advantages of using Image Map Generator compared to manually creating zone maps of areas in an image? Has anyone any experience working with such generators and what are their pros and cons?

In my opinion, the main advantage of such generators is that Image Map Generators can significantly reduce the time needed to create complex image maps. Manually defining coordinates for each area in a large or intricate image can be time-consuming, but an Image Map Generator automates this process. I used https://www.fla-shop.com/image-map/ and I will say - it is worth it. In addition, Image Map Generators are typically user-friendly and require little to no coding knowledge. They offer a graphical interface that simplifies the process of creating clickable areas on an image.

For me, the main advantage is that image map generators are especially useful for beginners who are new to web development and may find creating image maps by hand a daunting task. After creating the image map using the Generator's visual interface, you can often export the generated HTML and CSS code. This provides the flexibility to further customize the image map or integrate it into your website's codebase.
