- Skr-canvas – No system dependencies, no postinstall scripts
- skr-canvas 0.1 released, drop in replacement for node-canvas. 0 system dependencies! 0 post install scripts! Support all active Node.js versions!
- skr-canvas now has out of box support for `node:lts-alpine` on both x64 and arm64! Just try it out by: `docker run --rm -it node:lts-alpine sh` and `yarn add @napi-rs/canvas`
- Just published @napi-rs/canvas v0.0.4. Support full featured PathKit functions, and text rendering/metrics will be released soon.
- Another skia binding just for building node-canvas alternative

Out of box canvas implementation by napi-rs and skia, zero system dependency, and no postinstall scripts. We are very close to complete its functionality, just try it with npm install @napi-rs/canvas
The goal of this project is to implement a superset of node-canvas with better performance in most scenarios. For now, Image decode/encode is partially supported, including png/jpeg/webp. Text rendering and text metrics is on the way, we have issue to track the progress https://github.com/Brooooooklyn/canvas/issues/156

2024 Web Development Wish List
Assuming SWR (stale while revalidate) is working, we could definitely use the ability to edit images in workers. We would need support for node canvas or something similar.

Skinny legend (2017 - 2023)
So at this point, I have all the images and the data required to align the images. I used node-canvas to do that. So here's how I aligned the images:

ECharts for Python
ECharts was originally a Baidu project, released under https://github.com/ecomfe/echarts (ecomfe = "E-commerce frontend"?). They still maintain some of the auxiliary libraries.
I've been using it since around ... 2018-ish[0]? ... as a replacement for Google Charts. It was my first time using a big library from one of the Chinese tech giants -- basic docs and tutorials in English, then all the advanced stuff (and comments) written in Chinese. I was impressed by how comprehensive the charts library was, and how they'd obviously invested a lot of brainwork into the configuration system. IMO it's one of the highest-quality data visualization libraries in JavaScript unless you're willing to dive deep into something like d3.js.
The blog post's author describes running echarts in a headless Chrome, though, which seems insane to me. It's JavaScript rendering to a -- can't it run in Node with https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas ?

Social Media Cards with @vercel/og
Another approach is it to create a background image and insert the texts and the metadata with a canvas library like node-canvas. This approach is very well described in this Learn With Jason episode. But with a canvas library we have to specify on which coordinates we want to render our texts and it does not wrap automatically if it becomes to long.

Lambda keeps consuming more and more memory until it kills it self
I found this issue: https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas/issues/1974 and somebody commented with a link about node buffers. So I decided to test these parts.

The tech behind creating your own 'Spotify Wrapped' style campaign in 2022
If you want to go the same route check out the node-canvas library from the Automattic folks. That essentially lets you use the Browser Canvas API for drawing (but server side instead of in the browser).
