Vertex Engine GPU Font Cache: A text rendering library.
Vertex Engine GPU Font Cache: A text shaping & rendering library.
This project started as a port of the [VEFontCache](https://github.com/hypernewbie/VEFontCache) library to the Odin programming language.
While originally intended for game engines, its rendering quality and performance make it suitable for many other applications.

* Enforce even-only font sizing (useful for linear zoom)
* Push and pop stack for font, font_size, color, view, position, scale, and zoom
* Basic or advanced text shaping via Harfbuzz
* Basic (latin) or advanced (harfbuzz) text shaping
* All rendering is real-time, with triangulation on the CPU, vertex rendering and texture blitting on the GPU
* Can handle thousands of draw text calls with very large or small shapes
* 4-Level Regioned Texture Atlas for caching rendered glyphs
