  • Bevy vector graphics library?
    3 projects | /r/bevy | 27 Sep 2022
    The problem with femtovg currently is, that it's based on OpenGL. There is a fork for wgpu already, but it's not up to date with master and I'm not sure how difficult merging will be.

    You guys should also check out the femtovg project, a 2D rendering API that sixty fps relies on.

    It's a decent starting point for trying to build your own toolkit.

    I have recently added a wgpu backend but for now it lives in my fork https://github.com/adamnemecek/femtovg

    run the demo with `cargo run --example wgpu_demo --release`.

  • Good GUI toolkit/library recommendations needed

    It's not a GUI framework but I'm involved with this project called femtovg, it's a Rust nanovg port. I've recently added a wgpu backend. Run the demo with cargo run --example wgpu_demo --release. Some people have been using it for their own UIs, e.g. tuix. I think that you should consider rolling your own GUI toolkit, it's not that bad and you'll appreciate the control.
  • Electron vs. Qt for a new open-source file organization project
    6 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 12 Jun 2021
    I have been recently rolling my own Rust GUI framework using this rendering crate I’m invovled with https://github.com/femtovg/femtovg and I’m pretty happy with it.

    I recently added a wgpu backend https://github.com/adamnemecek/femtovg.

    Combine that with the Flutter layout (check out the Druid implementation), and you have a GUI framework.

  • SixtyFPS v0.0.6 (GUI Toolkit in Rust): Now with IDE Support
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 27 Apr 2021
    SixtyFPS is a project started by Simon Hausmann and Olivier Goffart who previously worked on Qt at Trolltech.

    SixtyFPS is the first project with a company behind it which uses femtovg, a Rust nanovg port. https://github.com/femtovg/femtovg.

    Recently, we've added an experimental wgpu backend which is for now in my fork of the project https://github.com/adamnemecek/femtovg

    Congrats! I don't want to diminish the accomplishment, but have you seen femtovg? It seems like it's probably well-aligned with your needs.
  • Bevy vector graphics library?

  • Keeping POWER relevant in the open source world
    9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 22 Jan 2022
    https://github.com/femtovg/femtovg/pull/5

    Before Power10 was done, IBM actually asked us Raptor users about proposals for useful machine code instructions to add to it. I replied that I’d like to have hardware UTF-8 de-/encoding but they wanted a more detailed proposal and I never got around to write it. I’m not even sure that this would be worthwhile, but I see UTF-8 de-/encoding everywhere in the code I write and would like it to approach memory read/write speeds.

    I was very disappointed to learn that they had gone more proprietary with Power10 so I would not have been able to use those instructions anyway. What a pity!

  • How to use a Rust WebAssembly module in Svelte with Web Workers
    1 project | /r/sveltejs | 29 Nov 2021
    In my actual code, I'm using a library called femtovg that is a Rust port of a C library for 2D rendering. But In the blog post I kept the example simple to keep it relevant for people who might want to use Web Workers + WASM for other things; didn't want to get hung up on femtovg for someone who had never heard of it. As you say, if you all you need to do is basic 2D manipulations of a canvas that are supported by the native API, then you likely don't need WASM.
