=== Trac3r : A program to convert images to 2D toolpaths ===

 TODO:
	[x] Text rendering is half implemented.
		[ ] Pathfinder vulkan backend implementation
	[ ] Currently using local copies of a few libraries:
		[x] shade_runner ( not gonna happen, my fork has diverged too far )
		vulkano/vulkano-win
		vulkano/vulkano-shaders
		vulkano/vulkano
	[*] Get a new GPU
		[*] Figure out how to make this POS stable (semi stable)

==== Context switching ====

Okay. So now I have gotten myself into a bit of a pickle with the text rendering. What was supposed to be an "easy" hack to get it to work, ended turning into a complete vulkan backend written for the pathfinder gpu abstraction layer. This luckily is within my level of skill (I think) but it is no small task.

When I finally get this done, I should be able to allow [[VkProcessor]] to implement the Device trait, and then replicate the behaviour I am writing for the PoC!!

After this. I should have very robust and (hopefully) simple text rendering interface.
