@vidstige ,

as you are writing a rasterizer, I think the repo https://github.com/teichgraf/WriteableBitmapEx is another good resource to you.

[vidstige]

Thanks for the link! In WPF there is already vector graphics without any libraries. I want to build a rasterizer including the actual algorithms, as compared to using a library containing the algorithms. For example it could be used in the MOSA Project where they write an operating system from scratch in c#. There you do not have WPF nor WinForms.

[prepare]

umm, inside that project, it talks about write/raster geometry to pixel buffer.

(then it just copy to WPF -> to screen)

so it can port to run in any platform that provide them a buffer to draw. just look inside it. I think that is useful to you.

[vidstige]

I see. I just checked and they subdivide beziers to polygons and then draws polygons. Perhaps I should do that too, but I rather draw beziers directly. Thanks for the link! :-)

I think Typography should have a directory that contains all demos. Maybe we can create a directory named Demo in the root directory and sub-directories per platform like:

Demo
   |--Windows
   |     |--FontRasterizerSample.WinForms
   |--Mac
   |--Linux
   |--Android
   |--iOS
   |--...

By the way, I was trying to write demos with Xamarin on Android. 😃 I have done something but I'm a little busy now so I paused the work temporarily some days ago. But I promise I will finish that when I'm free again.

1. Demo , No PixelFarm Drawing Lib, easy to port to other platform

2. Demo, with PixelFarm Drawing Lib,

see https://github.com/LayoutFarm/Typography/tree/master/Demo/Windows/PixelFarmSample.WinForms

I have made Tygography run and render text on Android! I'm organizing and refactoring the android demo and will finally make a pull-request to Typography.

[zwcloud]

Done. See #31 .
