Really? I found Skia easier to compile than actually use.

  I also found this to be true when I tried to use Skia.

  It's probably gotten better lately. A few years ago it took me several days to get it built.

    So it is not only me. On my case I ended up giving up and went back to Qt.

  One needs to duplicate Google's build infrastructure, which is quite a pain versus other open source projects that rely on more mainstream tooling.

    Which would be fine if they provided some straight forward way to replicate that (like a container). It really seems like open source doesn't have that high of a standing at Google (anymore?). I guess limiting hardware manufacturers use of open source, not spending time making sure other people can build open source code, is what gives you the promotion these days
