Description

rendercanvas provides a single canvas API for various backends, such as glfw, Qt (PySide6, PyQt6, PyQt5), wx, Jupyter (jupyter_rfb), and an offscreen canvas. It is the canvas abstraction used by wgpu-py and pygfx. A canvas offers events, a render loop, scheduling, and a way to present rendered images.
