@urban-toolkit/autk-map / Renderer
Class: Renderer
Defined in: autk-map/src/renderer.ts:25
WebGPU renderer responsible for canvas setup, render-target management, and frame-level GPU resource lifecycle.
Renderer owns the WebGPU canvas context, allocates the multisampled main pass targets and the offscreen picking targets, and exposes helpers for starting render passes, submitting command buffers, and rebuilding size-dependent resources after resize events.
