This is purely experimental!
This is a playground for boxes and glue's line breaking algorithm.
I'd like to have a visual test for the line breaking algorithm of boxes and glue, so I render the result to an HTML canvas.
There will be more bells and whistles following, but I need a first commit, so here it is.
You need a Go compiler
# build
GOARCH=wasm GOOS=js go build -o linebreak.wasm
# serve:
python3 -m http.server
# open localhost:8000 and then open index.html
I use a small Go layer to the boxes and glue library (also written in Go) and compile it to Web Assembly (wasm). There is a small JavaScript interface to the Web Assembly program.
Many thanks to Didier Verna for etap that inspired me to create this. etap is far (yes far!) more advanced.
