Changes in version 0.1.7 (2026-05-12)                  

  - Updated the CRAN Rust build path to use a dependency graph
    compatible with rustc/cargo 1.77.2.

                        Changes in version 0.1.0                        

Initial release.

Tile generation

  - freestile() creates PMTiles archives from sf data frames with zero
    external dependencies (no tippecanoe, no Java, no Go).
  - Supports MapLibre Tiles (MLT) and Mapbox Vector Tiles (MVT) output
    formats.
  - Multi-layer output via named lists or freestile_layer() per-layer
    zoom control.

Geometry types

  - POINT, MULTIPOINT, LINESTRING, MULTILINESTRING, POLYGON,
    MULTIPOLYGON.
  - Automatic CRS transformation to WGS84.
  - Z/M dimension handling (dropped automatically).

Performance features

  - Parallel tile encoding with rayon (across tiles and within tiles).
  - Tile-pixel grid snapping for zoom-adaptive simplification without
    slivers.
  - Buffered tile assignment and clipping for seamless tile boundaries.

Feature management

  - drop_rate exponential feature thinning with Morton-curve spatial
    ordering for points and area-based ordering for polygons/lines.
  - base_zoom control for ensuring all features present at higher zooms.
  - cluster_distance point clustering with point_count attribute.
  - coalesce line merging and polygon grouping.

MLT encoder

  - Spec-compliant MapLibre Tile encoder with varint, delta, RLE, and
    dictionary encoding.
  - Validated against mlt-core 0.1.2 reference decoder.
