    Project mention: Looking for this. html + css rendering through wgpu. | /r/rust | 2023-07-03

    If you were to implement this yourself, i'd look into either swash or cosmic-text for the text rendering stack (this is one of the things you really don't want to write from the ground up). For accessibility, AccessKit has quickly become the standard for communicating with crossplatform accessibility APIs in rust GUI. lightningcss (or its lower level counterpart cssparser) are both decent options for CSS parsing. Taffy handles some of what browsers offer for a layout engine, but is still being worked on.

  • wgpu_glyph

    A fast text renderer for wgpu (https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu)

    Project mention: WebGPU – All of the cores, none of the canvas | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-07-16

    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.

  • ab-glyph

    Rust API for loading, scaling, positioning and rasterizing OpenType font glyphs

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
