[idea] Use one.js for WebGL font rendering. #45

Open trusktr opened 9 years ago

trusktr commented 9 years ago

This would be super awesome to use: http://hello.onejs.io (the font rendering bits).

coolwanglu commented 9 years ago

Any benefit from this?

trusktr commented 9 years ago

Well, the WebGL font rendering is amazing. We could skip all the language stuff. I'm going to look into it eventually, and see if I can abstract just the font rendering code. It's really cool what can be done with it. Imagine GL shader effects on Vim text (perhaps the faster you type the more the recently inputted character glows and then fades, like a Vim ninja on fire). That would be cool. :laughing:

That is a dead link. What is one.js?

trusktr commented 9 years ago

@jordwalke It's a library and framework that includes WebGL-based font-rendering. https://github.com/onejs/onejs Too bad the site is down. It's really awesome.
