It uses the libraries of Piston, a game engine in the Rust language.
PistonDevelopers

It is intended to be developed and run using Visual Studio Code on Windows.

Concepts

  • It is a pain in the ass to create a GUI,
    so please edit the configuration file for pen thickness and other settings.
  • It's a hassle, so the configuration file is not very structured and flat.
  • There are no features to make your work more convenient.
    For example, there is no color palette. There is only one pen color that can be set in the settings file.

Build

// Updating the Rust language
rustup update

// Creating an executable file
cargo build

Run

cargo run --example example1

Example

Your code:

use kusa_pixel::run;

fn main() {
    run();
}
