12    Skia is an open source 2D graphics library which provides common APIs that
13    work across a variety of hardware and software platforms. It serves as the
14    graphics engine for Google Chrome and Chrome OS, Android, Flutter, Mozilla
15    Firefox and Firefox OS, and many other products. Skia is sponsored and managed
16    by Google, but is available for use by anyone under the BSD Free Software
17    License. While engineering of the core components is done by the Skia
18    development team, we consider contributions from any source.
