+title: View Min-Zoom
+shortdesc: Demonstrates how the view's minimum zoom level can be changed.
+docs: >
+  The <code>minZoom</code> option for a view limits how far out you can
+  zoom.  This property can be updated by calling <code>view.setMinZoom(newMinZoom)</code>.
+  In this example, the minimum zoom level is set so that you only see one
+  world at a time.  Resize your browser window to change the threshold.
