This is an experimental Editor layer that abstracts out SkShaper text layeout for easy embedding into an application. The Editor layer is agnostic about the operating system.

|Application                     |

The Application layer must interact with the:

  • Windowing system
  • File system
  • Clipboard
  • Keyboard/mouse input.

tools/git-sync-deps
bin/gn gen out/default
ninja -C out/default editor
