sgldraw

sgldraw is a GPU accelerated, fairly performant, V module for drawing vector shapes through sokol.sgl.

The example can be run with: v run examples/app.v:

The special thing about sgldraw is that it's real-time - meaning that it'll draw all shapes from scratch 60 frames per second.

It also handles line widths > 1 - which makes the shapes look more like they'd do in e.g. Inkscape. All shapes can also be animated with sgl transforms or by changing each vertice coordinate the shapes is made up from.

Why

It was an experiment on doing real-time vector graphics and also to explore a way to package vector shape drawing into a self-contained and standalone module.

sgldraw has served as a personal sandbox but I'm releasing it to the public in case some of the code might be of interest to anyone.

Install

git clone https://github.com/Larpon/sgldraw.git ~/.vmodules/sgldraw

When sgldraw is in ~/.vmodules/ you can run the examples and import it as a normal V module with import sgldraw.

Notes

Legacy project

It's not completely abandoned, but my focus is currently elsewhere in V-land.
