piet-dx12
Experimental GPU-based 2D renderer using DX12.
Features
- GPU based rendering of large number of 2D objects is optimized using tiles to distribute workload on GPU processors efficiently. Workload distribution and object rendering are both achieved using compute kernels.
- Basic text rendering using glyph atlases.
- Basic implementation of piet specification.
Future Work
- Implement basic path rendering using ideas in RAVG.
- Implement additional primitives of interest in UIs: e.g. rounded rects.
- Use druid-shell for window management, with smooth window resizing.
- Integrate properly into piet ecosystem using
piet-common.
