@tallytalwar Can you check that this makes sense? If so I think we can go ahead and merge it. |

| [[ES-only](https://github.com/tangrams/tangram-es)] If the _URL_ of a data source has a file extension of `.mbtiles` then the specified file will be accessed as an MBTiles database and used as a tile set according to version 1.1 of the MBTiles specification: https://github.com/mapbox/mbtiles-spec | |||

Instead of version 1.1, probably we should mention according to the proposed version 2.0 of the MBTiles spec.

Yeah that makes more sense, updated.

Documents how Tangram ES can load tilesets from MBTiles databases.
Since we load vector tile formats, we don't strictly follow version 1.1 of the spec. Our implementation actually follows the proposed version 2.0 of the spec (mapbox/mbtiles-spec#46). I can update these docs when/if those changes to the spec are merged.
