Yes, that's right. To be honest, I spent some time already to inspect and analyze its code, because I found it as a nice example to learn Rust by rewriting this project.

rxi/lite have tens of functions in C to provide operation of file-system, implement fuzzy-finder or simple rendering calls for rectangles. Rest of code is written in Lua that shares a lot of signature-compatible functions with Sublime Text API. There is only Lua, STB (stb_truetype) and SDL2. Also compilation script is basic shell script [0].

It is also worth noting there is interesting contribution to provide sub-pixel rendering [1] (now, a fork [2]) which includes usage of libagg [3].
