    Yes, I'm using the Flutter MapBox GL project (that uses the native implementation, which is mostly written in C++). I'm using vector tiles, and it's getting down to 1.35cm/pixel for iOS and .12cm/pixel for Android at my latitude; I believe this is level 22 for iOS and 25.5 for Android.

    But vector tiles is indeed the way to go, but it's also much more complicated. Everyone that has worked on Maps so far has done it either as a SoC / Outreachy student or on weekends and evenings. Look at https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-native if you want to get a feel for the complexity of a client side implementation of rendering vector tiles.
