### [blit]

![blit example: blitting the full sprite](blit.png)
81+
82+
[blit] is a GPL licensed library for quickly blitting 2D images on a pixel buffer.
83+
After a long stale period development has resumed quite a bit
84+
in the last couple of months.
85+
86+
The previous big release, [v0.7.0][blit-0-7], saw a big improvement in performance
87+
and API ergonomics. It also introduced interactive WebAssembly examples
88+
[which can be seen here][blit-web-show].
89+
90+
The latest big release, [v0.8.0][blit-0-8], is a complete rewrite of the quite old
91+
and admittendly outdated API. A focus has been put on both ergonomics and performance.
92+
There's now many ways of drawing a subsection, tiling, masking and creating
93+
repeating slices of an image on a pixel buffer.
