Research direction

The issue concerns the Mapbox Vector Tile specification and rendering through Mapbox GL JS. Start by reviewing the specification and the stated Mapbox GL JS behavior, then determine whether an official verification program is documented. Done means providing a clear, authoritative answer about compliance and verification.

Description

Hello,
We are developing a tool to produce Mapbox vector tiles, and we want to know if there is an official verification program to check whether the tiles meet the specifications. Now that the tiles can be displayed normally through Mapbox GL JS, can it be considered as compliant?
