Announcing the start of skribo, a new Rust crate to implement low level text formatting:https://raphlinus.github.io/rust/skribo/text/2019/02/27/text-layout-kickoff.html …
Yes, this is not just Cairo but specifically its "toy text API" which is what it sounds like. Working with Cairo (among other 2D renderers) is a goal for skribo and those results should be good.

Sure, I didn’t mean to imply otherwise. Cairo provides enough low level font and glyph handling APIs to integrate with other text layout engines. I’ve used it with Pango and with HarfBuzz directly and it did just fine.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
