Canvas vector graphics update: rich text and path boolean operation support
I wanted to share a recent large update to https://github.com/tdewolff/canvas, which is a vector graphics library written in Go to create images, PDFs, SVGs, OpenGL, etc. using vector drawing operations. Especially I wanted to show two new exciting features:
-
Client-side scripting for in-browser graphics.
It appears that there's a port of Cairo to Go which also targets webassembly. https://github.com/tdewolff/canvas
- Pixie – A full-featured 2D graphics library for Nim
-
Processing equivalent in GoLang
https://github.com/tdewolff/canvas/blob/master/examples/opengl/main.go can draw primitves but i think it would be a bit hard to do event based animation

tdewolff/canvas: vector graphics in Go (mayor update)
Yes! See https://github.com/tdewolff/canvas/tree/master/examples/gonum-plot for an example using gonum-plot. You should be able to plug-and-play to use the canvas library!
- Cairo in Go: Vector to SVG, PDF, EPS, Raster, HTML Canvas, etc.
