4 months ago Style is written in CartoCSS using Mapbox Studio Classic (https://www.mapbox.com/mapbox-studio-classic/), and shared here as Mapbox Studio Classic project
Reading that the limitation might be on the Mapbox side? https://docs.mapbox.com/help/dive-deeper/static-maps/#creating-static-maps

4 months ago Mapbox seems to switch to webp when supported by browser: https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-js/pull/1756 https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-js/blob/main/src/util/mapbox.ts#L139
(I'm using Leaflet)

4 months ago Sorry but for the moment, Carto basemaps raster are only available in PNG formats
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but is there a way to use the webp or avif instead of png image format? The documentation only mentions
.png. https://github.com/CartoDB/basemap-styles?tab=readme-ov-file#1-web-raster-basemapsBrowser support for these is great:
