straightvi
Straightvi is a fictional software library and specification used to illustrate a modern approach to geometric visualization and vector processing. In this article, Straightvi refers to a hypothetical open-source project intended for educational purposes. The concept envisions a lightweight, cross-platform toolkit that offers a minimal core API for 2D and 3D straight-line geometry, including operations on points, vectors, lines, and affine transforms, with emphasis on simplicity and predictable performance.
History and motivation: The idea of Straightvi emerged in discussions about teaching computational geometry and graphics,
Core features: Straightvi centers on a small, well-documented core describing primitive types and algebraic operations, and
Use cases: Educational demonstrations of line geometry, visualization of geometric constructions, robotics simulation that requires precise
Reception: As a fictional example, Straightvi is often cited in teaching materials as an approachable model
