Nightgraph - Putting Code to Paper with Rust

Explore the development of Nightgraph, a creative coding environment built in Rust, through this 41-minute conference talk from Rust in Arts 2021. Dive into the techniques, tools, and designs used to create a low-friction, interactive sketching platform with minimal boilerplate. Learn about plotters, SVGs, and initial Rust works, as well as key components like shapes, canvases, and execution contexts. Discover how Nightgraph handles closed shapes, centroids, and API design, and understand the implementation of CLI parameters and sketch attributes. Gain insights into creative coding and Rust's application in artistic endeavors.
