  • Ask HN: Should I consider this as library or framework?

    I made a small "I called" as library to output 2D primitives graphics to window easily using C++. here is the project: https://github.com/krehwell/Memake

    what is it categorized appropriately? is it considered as a library since I provide utilities to draw primitives output to graphical window?

    or

    is it considered as framework since I define on how they would enabling the drawing

  • Writing a TrueType font renderer
    9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 1 Jan 2024
    I have a small TTF implementation that's in the neighborhood of that size and is open source. It's part of my canvas_ity single-header library [0] that's around 2300 LOC / 36 KB object size and implements a C++ version of most of the 2D HTML5 canvas spec [1].

    The core implementation of the TTF parsing and drawing is in L1526-L1846 with another small bit at L3205-L3274 of src/canvas_ity.hpp.

    It's something of a toy implementation that only supports western left-to-right text, and doesn't do any hinting at all, nor kerning, nor shaping. But it's enough to draw a basic "Hello world!" using any typical TTF file.

    The test suite in test/test.cpp L84-304 embeds a few custom Base64-encoded TTF files. They're small and only have a few glyphs but they do exercise a number of interesting edge cases in the OpenType TTF spec [2]. Have a look at the HTML5 port of the test suite at test/test.html in different browsers to see how their canvas implementations render those fonts.

  • The Lone Developer Problem

    Agreed, that sort of documentation is pure gold when done well.

    It's something I always try to pay forward by doing in my own code. For example, one of my own solo projects was an STB-style single-header -like rasterizer library for C++. I started the implementation half of the library with a short outline of the rendering pipeline's dataflow and the top-level functions responsible for each stage:

    This is an STB-style single-header C++ library with no dependencies beyond the standard C++ library. In about 2300 lines of 78-column code (not counting blanks or comments), or 1300 semicolons, it implements an API based on the basic W3C specification to draw 2D vector graphics into an image buffer:

    - Strokes and fills (with antialiasing and gamma-correct blending)

    - Linear and radial gradients

    - Patterns (with repeat modes and bi-cubic resampling)

    - Line caps and line joins (handling high curvature)

    - Dash patterns and dash offsets

    - Transforms

    - Lines, quadratic and cubic Beziers, arcs, and rectangles

    - Text (very basic, but does its own TTF font file parsing!)

    - Raster images (i.e., sprites)

    - Clipping (via masking)

    - Compositing modes (Porter-Duff)

    - Drop shadows with Gaussian blurs

    I also uncovered a number of interesting browser quirks along the way with the HTML5 port of my testing suite.
