genmesh 0.4.2

A package for generating 3D meshes
Documentation

Genmesh's is a library that offers ways to generate and manipulate vertex streams.

The core problem that this library solves is to find a nice way to build meshes that does not just result in throwing all the vertices and indices into a Vec<T> and calling it done. While doing so is simple from a library writers point of view, the consumer will often have to translate that buffer to the format that they need before it can be used. This produces needless buffering that can be avoided.

Genmesh's solution is to utilize the Iterator trait to build a vertex processing pipeline. The Iterator trait has a number of useful functions like zip, map and collect that are useful in themselves. Genmesh includes a number of traits that can be used with the built in Iterator traits to build the meshes that your engine needs.
