Recommended font drawing crate?

[junglie85]

Are there any font drawing crates that are known to work well with pixels?

I haven't used any font crates with it. In theory, anything that can rasterize a font would work.

fontdue gives out Vec<u8> for each character you rasterize. (It doesn't return images, it's a coverage grid. But it can be converted into an image.) Combined with a crate like pix, should give you a decent headstart.

That’s a great idea. Thanks.
