Graphite Support

Open mimbrown opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

It states explicitly that harbuzz's graphite support was dropped in this implementation. I understand graphite support probably seems like a lot of work for minimal returns, but has there been any consideration about adding this? I'm assuming that would involve rewriting the graphite engine in Rust.

Yes, any dependency must be written in Rust. Preferably, without using unsafe.

Graphite looks like a fairly small library, so maybe someone would be willing to port it.

I would be interested in doing it but I'm a rust newbie. This wouldn't be something you'd be willing to take on, would it?

Maybe someday. But I will not have free time anytime soon.

That's fair.

You could try :)

Out of scope.
