but... the program ends up entirely compiled and executed as TTF bytecode in the end right, since it's entirely contained in the TTF font ? And TTF bytecode is only the following instructions : https://developer.apple.com/fonts/TrueType-Reference-Manual/RM05/Chap5.html https://developer.apple.com/fonts/TrueType-Reference-Manual/... and I don't see anything related to SIMD in there
- erk__ 2y agoNo that is not what is happening, HarfBuzz have a experimental Wasm shaper, so the font embeds some wasm code that tells Harfbuzz what to output. https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/blob/main/docs/wasm-shaper.md https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/blob/main/docs/wasm-sha...
- jcelerier 2y agooh ok, so it can't work in any system that doesn't use harfbuzz.. that's much less interesting than what I originally thought
