Is it possible to use pango with skia for text rendering on linux?

[hl209...@gmail.com]

As far as I know android use Harfbuzz for text shaping. I want more powerful text layout function than Harfbuzz does. It's possible use pango with skia. I can'nt find any document or "hello world" about this. If any one know how to do this please tell me. Thanks a lot.

I'm not sure what you mean by "more powerful than harfbuzz". Pango is a high-level text rendering library that uses harfbuzz.

I want font fallback which pango has but Harfbuz don't. I want to render text which maybe include some color emojis, but color emoji font don't have latin character glyphs. How can I do this with skia ?

I'm currently working on some higher level paragraph layout code for Skia, which isn't quite ready yet. There's a fairly simple example of how to use HarfBuzz and ICU with Skia to do bidi, shaping, and font fallback (but no line breaking) in Skia's tools/shape/SShaper_harfbuzz . Hopefully we'll have a better answer soon.
