avalonia-rendering-and-graphics

Implement or review Avalonia animations, compositor usage, custom drawing, Skia rendering, geometry, hit testing, and advanced rendering interop. Use for transitions, frame-loop work, `Render` overrides, custom visuals, drawing optimizations, or OpenGL or Vulkan hosting boundaries.

Avalonia Rendering and Graphics

Start with:

../../references/12-animations-transitions-and-frame-loops.md
../../references/14-custom-drawing-text-shapes-and-skia.md
../../references/15-compositor-and-custom-visuals.md

Load these as needed:

../../references/37-shapes-geometry-and-hit-testing.md
../../references/59-media-colors-brushes-and-formatted-text-practical-usage.md
../../references/61-rendering-and-interop-boundaries-opengl-vulkan-framebuffer.md

Workflow

Prefer built-in animations and transitions before custom frame-loop logic.
Use compositor and custom visuals only when there is a concrete interaction or performance reason.
Keep custom drawing and geometry ownership explicit.
Treat rendering interop as a boundary decision, not a casual extension point.

Rules

Keep Render overrides small and predictable.
Separate scene description, animation timing, and platform interop concerns.
Use advanced interop only when the built-in rendering stack is insufficient.
