Introduction
A React renderer powered by Vello — Rust GPU rendering via WASM and WebGPU.
Draw shapes and text declaratively in React while Rust handles the rendering. React Vello is a custom React reconciler backed by Vello, compiled to WASM and drawn with WebGPU.
Why React Vello
- Declarative scene graph — compose
Canvas,Rect,Text, and other host components like any React tree - GPU-first — Vello renders through WebGPU when available
- WASM included — the renderer ships with the package; no separate native toolchain
- Familiar ergonomics — inspired by react-three-fiber, react-konva, and react-pdf
