Crate stb

Rust API for stb libraries (see details https://github.com/nothings/stb)

Philosophy

stb libraries are designed with the following priorities:

• Easy to use
• Easy to maintain
• Good performance

Sometimes I let "good performance" creep up in priority over "easy to maintain", and for best performance I may provide less-easy-to-use APIs that give higher performance, in addition to the easy-to-use ones. Nevertheless, it's important to keep in mind that from the standpoint of you, a client of this library, all you care about is #1 and #3, and stb libraries DO NOT emphasize #3 above all.

Some secondary priorities arise directly from the first two, some of which provide more explicit reasons why performance can't be emphasized.

• Portable ("ease of use")
• Small source code footprint ("easy to maintain")
• No dependencies ("ease of use")
