### [ktx2](ktx2-github)

A revamped and refactored version of @F3kilo's ktx2-reader,
this serves as a parsing library for the texture container format
of ktx2. This format allows you to store textures in formats that
GPU apis directly accept, without decoding costs. For more information,
[read the docs](ktx2-docs).

ktx2 writing support will come a future release.

_rend3 rendering a complex scene_

rend3 is a new 3D rendering library that focuses on having an easy
to user interface without sacrificing performance or customizability.
It comes with PBR materials and render routine out of the box and utilizes
GPU culling to enable incredible performance with such a simple API.

There're many fun things in the pipeline including a full custom shader
system, both cpu and gpu side optimization, and more rendering features.

The [v0.1 version][rend3-crates] was published on crates.io
([docs](rend3-docs) and [examples](rend3-examples)) and v0.2 is going
to be coming out very soon.
