On the other hand that would mean more work for you - for not so important things.

[2] I think, for that I'm useless, because I tend extremely to see as much as possible on maps. Which makes it usually quite uncomfortable for people not used to that.
I will look into how to make it simple to work on styles. In contrast to "normal" Mapbox GL styling via JSON and their point-and-click GUI, I wrote scripts that generate style JSONs from different files. This is maybe not as simple in the beginning, but removes lots of repetitive activities, in my take of it. And, as a bonus, allows to define multiple styles which have been tuned for one thing or another.

Can I assume Linux environment for development?

As for [2], we can keep all in check. At present, I think, its too sparse. And it does not use full potential of Mapbox GL - such as means allowing you to limit number of POIs shown at different zooms.

I have few other things I'd like to finish first, but will work on making it easier for others to contribute.
