Introduction
MapLibre GL Native is a community led fork of Mapbox GL Native. It's a C++ library that powers vector maps in native applications on multiple platforms by taking stylesheets that conform to the MapLibre Style Specification, a fork of the Mapbox Style Specification. Since it is derived from Mapbox's original work it also uses Mapbox Vector Tile Specification as its choice of vector tile format.
