Skia is a 2D graphics library from Google that powers drawing in Chrome, Android, Flutter, and Firefox, handling text, shapes, and images on screen.
Skia is a 2D graphics library from Google, written in C++. It provides the drawing capabilities that many well-known applications and platforms rely on underneath: Chrome, Android, Flutter, and Firefox all use Skia to render text, shapes, images, and other visual content on screen.
The README in this repository is minimal. It states that Skia handles drawing text, geometric shapes, and images, and points to the project's main website at skia.org for documentation and build instructions. No further detail is provided in the README itself.
Where it fits
- Use Skia as the rendering engine in a cross-platform application that needs consistent 2D drawing across operating systems.
- Contribute to or fork Skia to add custom drawing capabilities for an embedded or desktop platform.
