4. Explore the styling of vector tiles

One key advantage of vector tiles is the option to 'style', to adjust rendering to specific client needs without having to work with server-side setups.

Use this editor to explore changing the visual appearance of a variety of basemaps >ArcGIS Vector Tile Style Editor. Experiment with changing the appearance of various map layers and elements - this only is possible because vector elements are cached locally on the browser and rendered according to the requested style. This flexibility in styling would NOT be feasible with a web map service.
