Developing a rendering engine for mailweb 0.3. The gist in that is Servo rendering the mail as a set of offline rendered tiles.

Given that Servo is complicated I'm figuring offline rendering part in a separate project.

I needed some tileable content to work with so I wrote "a classic" fractal cloud generator out of my memory (decades ago literally) ("diamond alike" recursion and periodic perlin noise) :-)

This was also great finding: https://github.com/rust-windowing/softbuffer

Pipeline is also float free with subpixel accurate integer rendering to keep shit simple and translatable.

And I do have a plan to get a real scrolling experience not just page flipping (to what sixel actually scales). I just need to test my theory first...
