ttf: implement 'gasp' table
Magnolia is a new UI toolkit written entirely from scratch in Zig for Linux desktops. It has a focus on ease-of-use, performance, and supporting older devices.
The only runtime system dependencies are X11 and OpenGL 2.1.
The only additional build dependencies are Git, Zig, Zigmod.
Note: this project is a WIP and still in a very experimental state. Stay tuned for more updates.
As far as problem space you can consider this project as an alternative to a mix of GTK/KDE/QT and GNOME/Plasma depending on which part of the code you're using.

zigmod.yml and zigmod.lockMagnolia is built using the Zig build system. To see all available build options run zig build --help.
If building on NixOS, there is a shell.nix which will enable all the system dependencies needed.
Pull in the Zig dependencies by running zigmod ci.
