Introduction to Vector Graphics Rendering

[@leddoo]

some things i forgot to mention in the video: 1) there's an explanation of the line vs line algorithm in the source code: github.com/leddoo/edu-vector-graphics/blob/349715202e78d5ea02d8986af1c74127ecc54571/src/main.rs#L39 2) "curved paths" can be rendered by first converting them to line segments, and then using the algorithm in the video - but ideally you'd use a faster one :P

absolutely blew my mind when you used inspect element on an image file. wow

This video is a really good introduction to vector graphics! I use svgs a lot in my projects and I can give this video Jodie's badge of approval :)

Wow I really love this introduction. You manage to give a good overview of the different capabilities and implementation details of vector graphics. I especially adored the simple rust code to underpin what you explained. I would love to see a video on some of the optimization ideas you mentioned in the description, maybe also with hints towards how this is implemented in running systems such as in a browser (i.e. what does the GPU do, what libraries do the heavy lifting).

i'll stay focused on the scripting language / gui for now, but i'll keep this in mind!

Great intro!

[@matias-eduardo]

I really enjoy how you add the code gradually using the layers. It's a small detail, but makes it a lot easier to follow.

[@leddoo]

glad that helped! paint has been surprisingly useful for the visual explanations :D

[@bythealphabet]

Thank you very good explanation, can you continue with these lessons?

[@Haiderali-qd1jy]

I see rust code, I'll subscribe
