//! Tools to help with generating vertex and index buffers.
//!
//! ## Overview
//!
//! While it would be possible for the tessellation algorithms to manually generate vertex
//! and index buffers with a certain layout, it would mean that most code using the tessellators
//! have to copy and convert all generated vertices in order to have their own vertex
//! layout, or de-interleaved vertex formats, which is a very common use-case.
//!
//! In order to flexibly and efficiently build geometry of various flavors, this module contains
//! a number of builder interfaces that centered around the idea of building vertex and index
//! buffers without having to know about the final vertex and index types.
//!
//! See:
//!
//! * [`GeometryBuilder`](trait.GeometryBuilder.html)
//! * [`FillGeometryBuilder`](trait.FillGeometryBuilder.html)
//! * [`StrokeGeometryBuilder`](trait.StrokeGeometryBuilder.html)
//!
//! The traits above are what the tessellators interface with. It is very common to push
//! vertices and indices into a pair of vectors, so to facilitate this pattern this module
//! also provides:
//!
//! * The struct [`VertexBuffers`](struct.VertexBuffers.html) is a simple pair of vectors of
//!   indices and vertices (generic parameters).
//! * The struct [`BuffersBuilder`](struct.BuffersBuilder.html) which writes into a
//!   [`VertexBuffers`](struct.VertexBuffers.html) and implements the various geometry
//!   builder traits. It takes care of filling the buffers while producing vertices is
//!   delegated to a vertex constructor.
//! * The traits [`FillVertexConstructor`](trait.FillVertexConstructor.html),
//!   [`StrokeVertexConstructor`](trait.StrokeVertexConstructor.html) and
//!   [`BuffersBuilder`](struct.BuffersBuilder.html) in order to generate any vertex type. In the
//!   first example below, a struct `WithColor` implements the `FillVertexConstructor` trait in order to
//!   create vertices composed of a 2d position and a color value from an input 2d position.
//!   This separates the construction of vertex values from the assembly of the vertex buffers.
//!   Another, simpler example of vertex constructor is the [`Positions`](struct.Positions.html)
//!   constructor which just returns the vertex position untransformed.
//!
//! Geometry builders are a practical way to add one last step to the tessellation pipeline,
//! such as applying a transform or clipping the geometry.
//!
//! While this is module designed to facilitate the generation of vertex buffers and index
//! buffers, nothing prevents a given GeometryBuilder implementation to only generate a
//! vertex buffer without indices, or write into a completely different format.
//! These builder traits are at the end of the tessellation pipelines and are meant for
//! users of this crate to be able to adapt the output of the tessellators to their own
//! needs.
//!
//! ## Do I need to implement geometry builders or vertex constructors?
//!
//! If you only generate a vertex buffer and an index buffer (as a pair of standard `Vec`),
//! then the simplest option is to work with custom vertex constructors and use
//! `VertexBuffers` and `BuffersBuilder`.
//!
//! For more specific or elaborate use cases where control over where the vertices as written
//! is needed such as building de-interleaved vertex buffers or writing directly into a mapped
//! GPU buffer, implementing custom geometry builders is the right thing to do.
//!
//! Which of the vertex constructor or geometry builder traits to implement (fill/stroke/basic
//! variants), depends on which tessellators the builder or constructor will interface with.
//!
//! ## Examples
//!
//! ### Generating custom vertices
//!
//! The example below implements the `FillVertexConstructor` trait in order to use a custom
//! vertex type `MyVertex` (containing position and color), storing the tessellation in a
//! `VertexBuffers<MyVertex, u16>`, and tessellates two shapes with different colors.
//!
//! ```
//! extern crate lyon_tessellation as tess;
//! use tess::{FillVertexConstructor, VertexBuffers, BuffersBuilder, FillOptions, FillTessellator, FillVertex};
//! use tess::math::{Point, point};
//!
//! // Our custom vertex.
//! #[derive(Copy, Clone, Debug)]
//! pub struct MyVertex {
//!   position: [f32; 2],
//!   color: [f32; 4],
//! }
//!
//! // The vertex constructor. This is the object that will be used to create the custom
//! // vertices from the information provided by the tessellators.
//! struct WithColor([f32; 4]);
//!
//! impl FillVertexConstructor<MyVertex> for WithColor {
//!     fn new_vertex(&mut self, vertex: FillVertex) -> MyVertex {
//!         MyVertex {
//!             position: vertex.position().to_array(),
//!             color: self.0,
//!         }
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! fn main() {
//!     let mut output: VertexBuffers<MyVertex, u16> = VertexBuffers::new();
//!     let mut tessellator = FillTessellator::new();
//!     // Tessellate a red and a green circle.
//!     tessellator.tessellate_circle(
//!         point(0.0, 0.0),
//!         10.0,
//!         &FillOptions::tolerance(0.05),
//!         &mut BuffersBuilder::new(
//!             &mut output,
//!             WithColor([1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0])
//!         ),
//!     );
//!     tessellator.tessellate_circle(
//!         point(10.0, 0.0),
//!         5.0,
//!         &FillOptions::tolerance(0.05),
//!         &mut BuffersBuilder::new(
//!             &mut output,
//!             WithColor([0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1.0])
//!         ),
//!     );
//!
//!     println!(" -- {} vertices, {} indices", output.vertices.len(), output.indices.len());
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! ### Generating a completely custom output
//!
//! Using `VertexBuffers<T>` is convenient and probably fits a lot of use cases, but
//! what if we do not want to write the geometry in a pair of vectors?
//! Perhaps we want to write the geometry in a different data structure or directly
//! into gpu-accessible buffers mapped on the CPU?
//!
//! ```
