piet-tiny-skia
A piet frontend for the tiny-skia framework.
tiny-skia is a very high-quality implementation of software rendering, based on the
algorithms used by Skia. It is the fastest software renderer in the Rust community and it
produces high-quality results. However, the feature set of the crate is intentionally limited
so that what is there is fast and correct.
This crate, piet-tiny-skia, provides a piet-based frontend for tiny-skia that may be
more familiar to users of popular graphics APIs. It may be easier to use than the tiny-skia
API while also maintaining the flexibility. It also provides text rendering, provided by the
cosmic-text crate.
To start, create a tiny_skia::PixmapMut and a Cache. Then, use the Cache to create a
RenderContext to render into the pixmap. Finally the pixmap can be saved to a file or
rendered elsewhere.
