piet-hardware is a strategy for implementing the piet drawing interface
using GPU primitives. The goal is to break down the drawing operations to
rendering textured triangles. The resulting buffers are than passed to the GPU
backend for rendering.
As piet-hardware simply implements the high-level strategy, it has no unsafe
code. The actual GPU calls are forwarded to an object that implements
GpuContext. This object is intended to be an interface to OpenGL, Vulkan,
Metal, or other GPU APIs.
The canonical code for this repository is kept on Codeberg. For convenience, a mirror is kept on GitHub.
