Marlin renderer 1.0 dev & JavaFX port
Donation protected
Marlin 0.9 was released in feb 2018, hopefully Marlin 1.0 will be ready in 2022 ...
I am the single FOSS contributor to the Marlin projects on github without any support from Java companies ...

This funding campaign is dedicated to support my enhancements on the Marlin renderer toward the release 1.0 now.
Marlin renderer 0.9 provided these new features:
- path simplifier (subpixel quantization + colinearity filter)
- path clipping in Stroker & Dasher - provide jdk9 builds (system module patches)
- improved array sorting thanks to DualPivotQuickSort (0.9.4)
Marlin renderer 1.0 will provide:
- better stroked curves (higher quality)
- fixing self-intersecting curves
- other 2d pipeline perf improvements...
These changes will be first offered to Marlin users @ github, later ported to MarlinFX @ github.
Finally I will still submit patches to OpenJDK (Java2d) and OpenJFX but it costs me a lot of time spent on build & code review... and depends on other OpenJDK team members (time).
Anyway I will focus on github releases first to let you enjoy Marlin improvements on any JDK release (8 to 20).
