Skia VS eve

Actually, that's not entirely accurate. The lottie-web library itself doesn't support rendering to WebGL. However, there is a package called canvaskit-wasm that wraps Skia (a graphics engine) with WebAssembly (wasm). This package includes a module called skottie which supports rendering animations into a WebGL surface. However, there is a drawback with this approach: using wasm requires loading a relatively large package, and it's uncertain whether all features are supported correctly, as the official compatibility table that tracks lottie support on different platforms does not include skottie.

Skia is pretty great if you can get it running.

The imgs are mainly used by Tencent QQ and Baidu Tieba users. QQ and Tieba compress imgs by default, so the popular imgs (in China we call them "屌图" or "表情包") would be compressed million of times during the spreading, causing the super low quality. These APPs on Android are using Skia for image processing, which suffering from a legendary bug: result would be more green. The bug was fixed in 2016: https://github.com/google/skia/commit/c7d01d3e1d3621907c27b283fb7f8b6e177c629d

There’s also Skia by Google. Used by Android and Google Chrome.

C++ offers tools for writing better APIs, and since the addition of concepts in C++20 it offers much better API enforcement. Writing an equivalent to libraries such as {fmt} or EVE is not possible in anything we’d call C.

Here is a doc on how we suggest to do it: https://jfalcou.github.io/eve/multiarch.html Here is complete code of that example: https://github.com/jfalcou/eve/tree/main/examples/multi-arch

My source for this was the statement:

Indeed you cannot. Then again, you couldn't write a library like fmtlib in C in the first place. I mean why do you complain about C++ features which enable you to write libraries you otherwise couldn't? How would you expect to implement equivalent libraries to EVE or mp-units in C alone?
