controversial created an issue (openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website#6234)
### Problem
It’s really exciting to have vector tiles hosted for the first time on
openstreetmap.org!
Currently, vector tiles are displayed using `maplibre-gl-leaflet`, which wraps
`maplibre-gl-js` in the same Leaflet API that we use to display raster maps
like Carto.
Using the leaflet wrapper for the vector maps holds the vector maps back from
user experience improvements that vector maps are designed to enable—for
example “smooth zooming” between integer zoom levels—and that users of other
vector maps (google / apple / etc) are accustomed to.
### Description
It would be great to drop the leaflet wrapper when displaying the new vector
layers. There are several pieces that would need to be migrated to not depend
on the leaflet API, some of which are documented by @tordans in
https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-website/issues/289.
I’m happy to edit this issue with a more comprehensive list of which features
depend on Leaflet APIs that would need to be adjusted for compatibility with
the mapbox-gl-js API when it isn’t wrapped in Leaflet!
