Better text rendering in Chromium-based browsers on Windows
(chrome.com)
The job of a web rendering engine is vast, and much of this work, such as styling, media, or layout, is driven by standards. These standards ensure that independent engines can be interoperable, which has allowed the web to flourish. But some finer details, such as how text is rendered at the pixel level, are often left to interpretation by the standards bodies, and typically end up relying on the operating systems that browsers run on.

Earlier this year I decided to put my main project Tangerine on hold indefinitely and began prototyping a new renderer in an unfamiliar language using a totally new graphics API with the goal of overcoming all of Tangerine's technical shortcomings.

How to draw an outline in a video game

End-to-End Tour of Text Layout/Rendering (2015)

I’ve found that there is a fair amount of confusion regarding how text rendering actually ends up working. In particular, it seems that the design of the system in general often goes unnoticed.

Implementing Order-Independent Transparency
(osor.io)
The reasoning for wanting Order-Independent Transparency comes from Order-Dependent Transparency being the way transparency rendering ends up being implemented in most computer graphics scenarios, and certainly in the majority of real-time rendering contexts.

Sorting for Rendering
(linebender.org)
Many rendering algorithms (including a proposed sparse strip technique for path rendering, and also Gaussian Splatting) rely on sorting. Because the GPU has a different architecture to the CPU, programs running on the GPU have different performance characteristics, and this changes which sorting algorithms are optimal for a particular context. In particular, sorting algorithms that exploit parallelism tend to be more suited to the GPU.

Modern graphics APIs, such as Direct3D 12 and Vulkan, are designed to provide relatively low-level access to the GPU and eliminate the GPU driver overhead associated with API translation.
