Graphics Extensions for Solar2D

Extend your graphical might with some of the greatest image formats available

Rationale

Would you like to support high screen resolutions without bloating up your app/game with duplicate images of varying sizes?

Would you like to play short animations on loop like GIFs or animated stickers?

Is the nanosvg plugin too inaccurate/slow/minimal?

Are the standard image formats supported by Solar2D too antiquated for you?

Fear not, for the solution to your woes is finally at hand.
