Change default CARTO basemap

By default, CARTOframes uses CARTO's Positron basemap with labels under. The basemap can be customized to use another CARTO style (Voyager, Dark Matter), a Mapbox basemap, or a custom background color; all through the basemap parameter.

In the example below, the default is changed from Positron to Voyager.
