No shaping at all. -- Quads or rectangles, with rounded borders and a solid background color. -- Clip areas, useful to implement scrollables or hide overflowing content. -- Meshes of triangles, useful to draw geometry freely. - -<p align="center"> - <img alt="The native target" src="../docs/graphs/native.png" width="80%"> -</p> - -[documentation]: https://docs.rs/iced_glow -[`iced_native`]: ../native -[`glow`]: https://github.com/grovesNL/glow -[`wgpu`]: https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu -[`glow_glyph`]: https://github.com/hecrj/glow_glyph - -## Installation -Add `iced_glow` as a dependency in your `Cargo.toml`: - -```toml -iced_glow = "0.7" -``` - -__Iced moves fast and the `master` branch can contain breaking changes!__ If -you want to learn about a specific release, check out [the release list]. - -[the release list]: https://github.com/iced-rs/iced/releases - -## Current limitations - -The current implementation is quite naive, it uses: - -- A different pipeline/shader for each primitive -- A very simplistic layer model: every `Clip` primitive will generate new layers -- _Many_ render passes instead of preparing everything upfront -- A glyph cache that is trimmed incorrectly when there are multiple layers (a [`glyph_brush`] limitation) - -Some of these issues are already being worked on!
