Hi Nikolai

Most vector tile generators can work with any WMS in the background. E.g. using MapCache with QGIS server should be perfectly possible.

I’d like to know if there are any plans for enabling serving vector tiles from QGIS Server, so they can be used in client libraries like Mapbox GL afterwards. Seems like GDAL (OGR really) MVT driver is stuck in development and there already are some stand-alone implementations, like utilery (https://github.com/tilery/utilery) or Mapnik vector tile (https://github.com/mapbox/mapnik-vector-tile), but nothing is integrated with QGIS server. Since Mapbox and ESRI adopted MVT, and most major web basemaps (like Google, Apple etc.) are already vector tile based, it seems like QGIS is running a bit behind in this field. So it would be great to start a discussion on utilising vector tile spec within QGIS.

Cheers
