I've been using blend2d for a visualization program and it's a worthy successor to AGG

So happy to see this mentioned here ! I agree and i think mister Shemanarev would aswell. The AsmJit system is really interesting as well. As a writer of a small c++ graphics library i am very confident in the quality and used it as a software rendering solution and backend for painting tools, it's robust and may only improve. Bravo to Petr Kobalicek, the main author of Blend2D

I wonder how Skia would do in the benchmarks.

Faster, Skia is GPU accelerated, whereas Blend2D is a CPU rasterizer.

I didn't realize that the principals of Skia were also responsible for Apple's (long-dead) QuickDraw GX.

Nice, has anyone made python bindings yet ?

Especially ones installable from a whl with everything self contained.
