Best approach to render a lot of text.
There are tools for making sdf textures like this(msdf-atlas-gen). It has a windows executable to generate the textures.

I need help with using font atlas in shaders when using msdf-atlas-gen library from Chlumsky.
Here is the library in question: https://github.com/Chlumsky/msdf-atlas-gen

Rendering Artifacts
I'm rather new to computer graphics, and after working on the Vulkan tutorial (https://vulkan-tutorial.com/) I started trying to render a Multi-channel Signed Distance Field (https://github.com/Chlumsky/msdf-atlas-gen).

Vulkan Pipeline Settings for SDF Font Render
I'm am fairly new to Vulkan and graphics programming as a whole, and I'm currently trying to render text from a SDF Font atlas (the file is a bitmap). I used the MSDF-atlas-generator to get the atlas and used a boost library to parse the json file which contained the atlas bounds for the specific characters. With the default shader code I have written, (from Vulkan tutorial) my characters render but with a soft edge as in how they're shown in the atlas.

Sharing Saturday #395
Floating text. This was long overdue, and was kinda reminded of its importance from /u/nesguru 's updates (similar tileset, but Legend already has floating text). So, I went on to implement something. While I'm using Unity, I do not want to use that "£!$%^ Canvas system, and TextMeshPro (which is the go-to solution for such text) uses Canvas, so ... I had to roll my own solution! There's a paper from Valve for SDF fonts, and some nice person developed an extension for that, which addresses a few issues. So, I went on to implement that, which involved picking some free font online (I chose Roboto Slab from Google Fonts), converting it into a texture, preparing a special JSON with configuration, and a few shaders and a special particle system later, Let There Be Text!. I copied a bit the idea from Tangledeep where floating text goes into random directions sometimes (although there's a now-fixed bug in the video, and text goes left-ish only), and I've also added support for a typewriter effect to be used in certain cases (when characters talk in to-be-developed cutscenes etc)

I rendered text!
For those asking for code, the atlas generation code is a library here: https://github.com/Chlumsky/msdf-atlas-gen Admittedly it’s hard to figure out the api, since it’s undocumented, and I had to sort of piece together the correct way to use it by reading through the source code for the console app. I may write up a small tutorial somewhere to help the next person, if I get the time and find a place to post it.

Learn Wgpu tutorial updated to 0.10
I think I might be using (maybe my fork of) https://github.com/Chlumsky/msdf-atlas-gen with some cxx-rs bindings for the text rendering portion of things; I'm curious, would you be interested in such a crate?

Ever heard of Vector Textures?
msdf-atlas-gen is a version specifically for text.

Create a Custom GitHub Action in Rust
Rust has a rich ecosystem of frameworks and libraries that let you read, parse, and manipulate text files, interact with cloud services and databases, and perform any other job that your project's development workflow may require. And because of its strong typing and tight memory management, you are much less likely to write programs that behave unexpectedly in production.

So, be sure to double-check your critical libraries and be sure their alternatives exist in the Rust ecosystem. There’s a good chance the crates you need are available in Rust's crates.io repository.

Learning Rust: A clean start
The previous section was very simple, this section is also very simple but introduces us to cargo which is Rust's package manager, as a JS dev my mind goes straight to NPM.

#2 Rust - Cargo Package Manager
Now, there has to be a place where all these packages come from. Similar to npmjs registry, where all node packages are registered, stored and retrieved, Rust also has something called crates.io where many helpful packages and dependencies are registered.

Underestimating rust for my Project.
The most thrilling aspect has been the joy of writing the backend. It's like every struct, enum, and method in Rust forms this interconnected Multiverse of code , which you can see in crates.io which is best Documentation experience I Ever Had.

Cargo has never frustrated me like npm or pip has. Does Cargo ever get frustrating? Does anyone ever find themselves in dependency hell?
Vendoring your packages was very tedious to even remotely get to work with Cargo. I spent a very long time getting Cargo to work together with cargo-local-registry. We vendor crates from crates.io and a custom internal registry.
