Crate piet

Expand description

A 2D graphics abstraction.

This crate contains types and interfaces that represent a traditional 2D graphics API, in the tradition of PostScript. It is built on top of kurbo, a 2D geometry library.

The main interface is the RenderContext trait.

This API can be implemented on various platforms, allowing drawing code to be reused in an approximately consistent way. Various such implementations exist, such as piet-cairo, piet-coregraphics, and piet-direct2d.

If you are interested in using piet to target multiple platforms, piet-common is a utility crate that re-exports an appropriate backend based on the compile target, and provides convenience types and methods for setting up a RenderContext.
