VectorKit is a private framework that handles all graphical rendering for Apple Maps. It parses and renders vector map tiles, stylesheets, and icon packs.
A lot of the code is written in C++, presumably shared with server-side components. In particular, there's some functions to encode files which are likely not used on the client-side, which only needs to decode data retrieved from the server.
