Overview

realtime-drawing is a Rust crate (library) for fast drawing aimed at interactive applications and games.

This crate is work-in-progress and was not published on crates.io yet.

Features

• Optimized for dynamically generated content.
• Antialiasing of lines using blended strips.
• GPU rendering: output to streamed vertex/index buffers.
• Aggressive batching across primitive types.
• Backend-agnostic. Comes with MiniquadBatch that implements miniquad-backend out of the box. Easy integration into existing engines.
• Works with custom vertex format through traits.
• Can be used with 16-bit indices (to reduce memory bandwidth) and update multiple buffers when reaching 65K vertex/index limits.
• Easy to extend with custom traits.
• WebAssembly support.
• Pure rust, no unsafe code.

Non-goals

• Is not a complete vector-graphics backend. Implements features that can be efficiently performed in realtime. If you are looking to render static SVG you might be better off using Lyon or Skia.
• No composition. You can do this with your own shaders though.
• No text rendering.
• Not for software rasterization.
