Following a comment by Karsten Pippig (swisstopo):

The Mapbox Vector Tile Specification describes the format of vector tiles. The styles, however, are provided in accordance with the MapLibre Style Specification (formerly the Mapbox Style Specification). We should therefore refer to the relevant specification when discussing the styles: https://maplibre.org/maplibre-style-spec/

Hi @asteiner-swisstopo
Thank you for your draft. We had a look at your testlink and have the following proposal for the text block in the "Vector Tiles" section:

This service delivers vector map tiles and styles through a RESTful API. The vector tiles are provided according to the Mapbox Vector Tile Specification while the map styles implement the MapLibre Style Specification, ensuring compatibility with MapLibre-based clients and other applications supporting the specification.
