Toy game engine. It's unstable, buggy, and really just a playground for me. (by mooman219)

WebGPU – All of the cores, none of the canvas
It won't live in WebGPU itself, but I do expect to start to see more third-party libraries for text. There’s already wgpu_glyph (https://github.com/hecrj/wgpu_glyph/tree/master) which uses a glyph atlas (CPU-rendered sprite map of characters), but techniques for signed-distance field fonts have come a long way too.

Does a wgpu text renderer exist for Android?
I've been searching for one all day, and wgpu_glyph is the only obvious choice, but it's incompatible with Android (and in fact crashes on startup even if all you do is add it as a dependency)

Does a wgpu text renderer exist for Android?
I have a totally not documented opengl pipeline reference I use to generate examples here https://github.com/mooman219/storm/blob/master/src/graphics/shaders/text/shader.rs if that helps at all. I'm not familiar with wgpu, but I don't believe it should be that different.
