canvas VS imaginary

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:

It appears that there's a port of Cairo to Go which also targets webassembly. https://github.com/tdewolff/canvas

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

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!

WebP also frequently produces lower quality or blurry images: - https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-going-blurry/ - https://github.com/h2non/imaginary/issues/240

One thing I didn't mention that AIO includes is a container called imaginary which is written in Go and processes images. I think this is mainly used here for generating image previews in NC.

Thanks. This is new to me. How is it different from https://github.com/h2non/imaginary?

There is also battle-tested imaginary tool [1], offering similar functionality and much more, also using libvips

Imaginary is a fast HTTP microservice written in Go allowing high-level image processing. Behind the scene, imaginary uses bimg and libvips libraries to perform the image manipulations.
