    Thanks. Yes, rendering and shaping are distinct but some of the linked libraries did one, the other, or both and the parent commenter singled out rastering which is how I ended up putting FreeType and HarfBuzz in the same sentence. Even then both are commonly used in tandem (see [1]-[9]) and have a few overlapping functionalities.

    > it does support BiDi, complex script shaping

    Hey, that is indeed quite good. Would you mind if I ask you how well is the support for popular Asian languages?

    > linking C and Rust in WASM is unfortunately not really possible

    Damn. I am not very experienced in Rust but I would not have guessed that. I apologize if I misrepresented difficulties related to targeting WASM.
