SkiaSharp
A cross-platform 2D graphics API for .NET, providing comprehensive rendering capabilities across mobile, server, and desktop.
What is SkiaSharp?
SkiaSharp is a cross-platform 2D graphics API for .NET platforms, based on Google's Skia Graphics Library. It provides a comprehensive set of drawing operations to render images, text, and vector graphics consistently across mobile, server, and desktop environments. The library solves the problem of fragmented graphics APIs by offering a unified rendering solution for the entire .NET ecosystem.
.NET developers building graphics-intensive applications across multiple platforms, including mobile (Android/iOS), desktop (Windows/macOS), and web (WebAssembly). It is particularly valuable for teams requiring high-performance 2D rendering without platform-specific code.
Developers choose SkiaSharp for its proven foundation (Google's Skia), extensive cross-platform support, and seamless integration with modern .NET UI frameworks like MAUI and WinUI. Its comprehensive API and consistent behavior across platforms reduce development complexity for graphics-heavy applications.
