# Pixie - A full-featured 2D graphics library for Nim
2020-11-20 02:41:32 +00:00
2020-11-27 21:51:40 +00:00
Pixie is a 2D graphics library similar to [Cairo](https://www.cairographics.org/) and [Skia](https://skia.org) written (almost) entirely in Nim.
2020-11-20 17:13:53 +00:00
2021-02-26 00:40:27 +00:00
This library is being actively developed and we'd be happy for you to use it.
