The joy of building a ray tracer, for fun, in Rust
Oh, I did something like this a while back as well! Aside from ray tracing, my renderer also supports ray marching, so it can render some cool fractals[1]. Writing path tracers is so much fun, love the write-up!

creating a free, fast and simple digital painting software (not planned UI/UX yet)
I would also recommend looking into SDL2 or MiniFB for cross-platform support, as not everyone uses X11.

graphics library for setting pixels on screen
MiniFB is what you want for this.

Best way to write a cross-platform graphical program in C while using only bare minimum third-party libraries?
MiniFB maybe?

eBook Gentle Introduction to Assembly Language (AARCH64)
But you can have a skeleton program that sets up framebuffer for you (e.g. with minifb or TIGR), then link it that skeleton with your code (in assembly or whatever you prefer).

native web-api graphics (live, not image)
I also saw minifb, which seems like a really to-the-point way to get a buffer I can draw to., so I guess I will go in that direction (rust lib, make FFI bindings for deno, etc.)

Can I make graphics without any libraries?
If you just want to push pixel data to a frame buffer then I can highly recommend minifb. MIT licensed, Supports a lot of platforms, and it’s about as simple as you can get. It also handles input if you need it, too.

I think this library will fit your goals: https://github.com/emoon/minifb
What are some alternatives?
When comparing keikan and minifb you can also consider the following projects:
