Splice an ICC profile (APP2 segment) into an existing JPEG byte stream produced by any encoder. Pure-managed, AOT-compatible, single-segment ICC only (up to 65519-byte profiles). Note: this is NOT a JPEG codec... More information

Reader and writer for the SER planetary-imaging video format (Lucam Recorder, spec v3), with memory-mapped frame-accurate random access and per-frame timestamps. Pure managed, AOT/trim friendly.

Pure-managed lzip (LZMA1) codec: a fast, AOT/trim-friendly compressor and decompressor for the lzip container format, including multi-member files with parallel decode and -b-style member splitting. Output is... More information

Desktop app-shell plumbing for single-window native applications: a named-pipe single-instance gate that hands a later launch's file to the already-running process, scoped by whatever identity the app chooses... More information

WebGL2 rendering backend for DIR.Lib's Renderer<TSurface> — Blazor WebAssembly, command-buffer JS interop, MSDF text via the shared SdfFontAtlas core. AOT compatible.

Native WebView2Loader.dll assets (win-x64 / win-arm64 / win-x86) for SdlVulkan.Renderer.WebView. The loader is Microsoft's, under the WebView2 SDK's license, included as THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt.

Implements accessing Player One cameras and filter wheels using .NET

Implements accessing ToupTek cameras, and the rebadged families on the same SDK, using .NET

Zero-dependency LAN peer discovery: a symmetric UDP announce beacon + self-expiring peer table over a shared broadcast domain, filtered by service name, with a stable-node-id concept and an extensible property... More information

Serial port I/O that does one job well: cancellable, deadline-honouring reads and writes that never abort spuriously (the CH34x ERROR_OPERATION_ABORTED trap of System.IO.Ports async reads), a bounded open and... More information

Cross-platform native WebView (WebView2 / WebKitGTK / WKWebView) hosted inside an SdlVulkan.Renderer window.

MCP server that discovers running Debug-build SDL3+Vulkan apps (built on SdlVulkan.Renderer) on this machine and the LAN and lets an AI agent inspect, screenshot, and drive their live UI.

Pure-managed OpenType text-shaping adapter for DIR.Lib: an ITextShaper backed by SharpAstro.Fonts.Shaping (script itemization, GSUB/GPOS, Arabic joining, RTL). Optional satellite — DIR.Lib core stays... More information

Pure-managed OpenType text-shaping engine (GSUB/GPOS/GDEF) over SharpAstro.Fonts. AOT-compatible, no native dependencies. Staged scope: OT-layout core, ligatures/kerning/marks, Arabic joining; Indic/USE out of... More information

Bakes font glyphs into coverage-run tables as generated C#, so an app can draw icons as tintable rectangles with no font installed at runtime. Wraps DIR.Lib's IconBaker.
