Explore in the sandbox Open in CodePen View live This sample shows how to add a VectorTileLayer from a JSON style object by setting the layer's style property. Esri's mid-century vector tile style is simplified and the VectorTileLayer is added from the modified JSON object. Esri also offers a set of vector basemaps with different styles.
It also demonstrates how to change the layout and paint properties for specified style-layers in the VectorTileLayer's currentStyleInfo.style in 2D MapView at runtime without having to reload the entire VectorTileLayer. This can be done by using the setStyleLayer() and setPaintProperties() methods.
The ArcGIS Vector Tile Style Editor is used to design custom vector basemaps and it takes advantage of the methods mentioned above.
