Anyone have idle thoughts on the feasibility of making :compose-multiplatform: *Compose Multiplatform* run *without a windowing system* :warning:*?*

In the knowledge that Compose sits on <https://skia.org|Skia> and then on <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swing_(Java)|Swing> for the underling <https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/awt/GraphicsEnvironment.html|GraphicsEnvironment>; and that it's possible to get a <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_framebuffer|Linux >_<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_framebuffer|framebuffer>_<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_framebuffer| device> in the absense of a windowing system.  Is defining a FrameBuffer based GraphicsDevice like <https://github.com/bithatch/linuxio4j|this> the only major gap?

*Use cases?* I'm thinking about Appliance style applications running on Raspberry Pi with <https://core-electronics.com.au/3-5inch-display-module-touch-lcd-with-stylus-for-raspberry-pi-3.html|these sorts of GPIO interfaced LCD screens> that come with basic frame-buffer drivers.

All caveats about pure software rendering and the tempered performance expectations withstanding ofc.

GPT thinks the way to go is configure Skia to not depend on Swing at all; and replace the dependencies at that level.

Well, I'm guessing you've heard of molecule? CLI compose
