this is the first I've seen of these alternative tools compared to using Tippecanoe(https://github.com/felt/tippecanoe). Are they considered to be higher performance?
Tippecanoe takes geojson and splits it up into tiles, we are talking about doing that with OSM data here. Typically you will want to apply some normalisation of the input data, then you need instantiate the geometry of the OSM objects, then split things up according to the vector tile schema in use and then write the tiles.
