ctx vector desktop - rasterizing as late as possible (lgm2026)

from Chaos Computer Club - recent events feed · host Øyvind Kolås

What becomes possible with a graphics stack/compositor that works with vectors, rather than pixels? - and what does it take to make it possible? Helping figuring out this - is a goal of the ctx terminal emulator with its vector graphics extension. The terminal is the main driver and testing ground for development of ctx. A low resource vector graphics library with event handling abstractions on top of a vector protocol with a performant software renderer. There is low level integrations ranging from microcontroller displays through linux framebuffer and SDL3 as well as interactive vector graphics user interfaces over full duplex text connections.
