Just a small update to Joel's answers on Arches' mapping technology: v4 does uses Mapbox GL as our primary open source mapping library. MapBox provides the same great capabilities of OpenLayers (e.g.: lots of data sources) and does a very nice job of supporting modern vector maps. We also use Leaflet, primarily to support IIIF images. Also, we no longer use ExtJS; v3 and v4 both use Bootstrap to support responsive user interfaces.
