What Hacker News says
4 sourcesThe NPM package doesn't list any dependencies:
https://github.com/google/skia/blob/master/modules/canvaskit...
I'm not saying you are wrong, but if the NPM package needed more stuff it would be in the package.json, no?
In CanvasKit – Skia and WebAssemblyWhen listing approaches, people should look at Skia Compute[0]. While it is true that traditional GPU's are not a super-great match for 2D graphics, modern GPU's are becoming more and more CPU-like, just with more parallelism. I haven't done careful quantitative evaluation of compute myself, but don't feel that any understanding of modern 2D graphics performance would be complete without that.

In Blend2D – 2D Vector Graphics EngineJust to take a look I opened the Project Zero main blog page and the newest article was on a bug in https://github.com/google/skia/ so I'm not sure I can take your comment with any ounce of credibility.
