Graphics

18 projects

wgpu is the standard GPU library in Rust. It implements the WebGPU API on top of Vulkan, Metal, Direct3D 12 and OpenGL, and also runs in browsers through WebGPU and WebGL. Bevy, Firefox's WebGPU support and many GUI toolkits are built on it, so it is the default choice for new rendering code. gfx was an earlier abstraction layer and is no longer the recommended path.

For lower-level control, Vulkano wraps Vulkan in a safe API that checks usage at runtime, while glium provides a safe OpenGL interface and gl-rs generates raw OpenGL bindings. glfw-rs binds GLFW for windows and input. rustybuzz is a Rust port of HarfBuzz for shaping text correctly in complex scripts.

The category also covers PDF. lopdf reads and edits PDF files at the object level, printpdf creates new PDFs with text, images and vector graphics, and pdf_oxide and hayro focus on extracting text and rendering pages. For 2D vector rendering of SVG, see resvg in Graphics apps.
