The new Mapbox Standard core style enables a highly performant and elegant 3D mapping experience with powerful dynamic lighting capabilities, landmark 3D buildings, and an expertly crafted symbolic aesthetic. With Mapbox Standard, we are also introducing a new paradigm for how to interact with map styles. When you use this style in your application we will continuously update your basemap with the latest features with no additional work required from you. This ensures that your users will always have the latest features of our maps. You can get more information about the available presets and configuration options of the Standard style in the style documentation. * The Mapbox Standard Style is now enabled by default when no `style` option is provided to the `Map` constructor.

But, this method is only applicable to custom layers you have added yourself. If you add two layers to the same slot with a specified layer position the latter will define order of the layers in that slot. -Standard is aware of the map lighting configuration using the `measure-light` expression, which returns you an aggregated value of your light settings. This returns a value which ranges from 0 (darkest) to 1 (brightest). In darker lights, you make the individual layers light up by using the new `*-emissive-stength` expressions, which allow you to add emissive light to different layer types and for example keep texts legible in all light settings. If your custom layers seem too dark, try adjusting the emissive strength of these layers. - -### Customizing Standard - -The underlying design paradigm to the Standard style is different from what you know from the classic core styles. Mapbox manages the basemap experience and surfaces key global styling configurations - in return, you get a cohesive visual experience and an evergreen map, always featuring the latest data, styling and rendering features compatible with your SDK. The configuration options make interactions with the basemap simpler than before. During the beta phase, we are piloting these configurations - we welcome feedback on the beta configurations.
