If you have any geospatial data, you can tile it with tippecanoe [0], which gives you an mbtiles file. Protomaps lets you easily convert the mbtiles file into a protomaps file which you can then use.
Protomaps doesn’t limit you to any particular type of tiles, it’s just a format which allows you to read tiles out of a single file with HTTP range requests.

- bdon 4y agoHi, thanks for the mention! The Mapbox repo has an older version of tippecanoe; there's a newer version actively being improved by Felt at http://github.com/felt/tippecanoe http://github.com/felt/tippecanoe , and they've also funded my addition of the Protomaps format (PMTiles) as a direct output. No conversion step required anymore!
