OSM create editable map to draw polyline path and markers

I would like to use OSM to create a small project, but i face this map first time and not sure if it possible to create something i want with it. As I figured out, there is nice library Leaflet to handle some simple operation with map. But I want some extra features:

1) I need to draw polyline on map like paths on map. It should be editable or readonly.

2) I need to have controls to create markers with custom text in popup. It also should be editable or readonly.

3) I would like to have an option to customize style of lines and markers

4) I would like to collect some geo info or/and measurements based on markers and polyline paths.

Is it possible? Could you please provide me some info about want will be great for each of my points? I saw many plugins for Leaflet, but not sure is it helpful enough. Thanks!

You have more than one solution for your requirements- custom map style, custom pois: OpenLayers offers an extensive bunch of features and is probably the most widely used. Leaflet is simple to use, relatively intuitive.

Then, you can choose different layers- popular commercial options (the free tier should be sufficient for most use cases): Skobbler‘s leaflet plugin-allows you also to add overlays & other visual elements on top of the map, Mapbox, MapQuest Open-free for any number of requests.
