I can't wholeheartedly recommend anything right now. There should be a standard text layout library with pluggable back-ends, but there isn't. If you go to the #text stream on xi.zulipchat.com, there's a lot of discussion under the "Skribo: lifting the curse" topic and a couple others. It's definitely possible to build something yourself using Allsorts and other pieces, but making it all work well is a highly nontrivial task. Part of the problem is that there are a bunch of projects out there, each with their own subset of requirements, rather than one good one. I'd like to mentor work to make this situation better, but it's too much for me to take on single-handedly. I'm also hoping that WebGPU catches on, and we'll be able to run piet-gpu on it (through wasm). That would, I think, be compelling for a lot of interesting use cases.
