Higher-level toolkit for MSDF text rendering

Overview

MSDF Toolkit

Higher-level toolkit for MSDF text rendering

About

MSDF - an abbreviation of Multi-channel Signed Distance Field.

In short, an efficient way for rendering text on screen, based on deserializing
data map which contains various informations for mapping glyphs in produced texture atlas.

If you want to read more about MSDF, read Valve's paper or msdfgen author's thesis.

Features

msdf-toolkit provides an interface for users to let them
easly serialize TrueType fonts into .*msdf (RON) & generate texture atlas (*.png)

Not yet implemented

  • Serializer:
    • serialize .tff from path
    • save serialized data as *.msdf in RON format
  • Deserializer:
    • deserialize *.msdf from path
    • expose deserialized data to the user
  • Renderer:
    • pack glyphs into font-atlas in *.png format

Pre-commit

Before you commit changes, it's good practice to run formatter & linter locally:

$ cargo fmt --all
$ cargo clippy -- -D warnings
