After repeated attempts to find an easy/quick way to view KTX files, I gave up and built my own. Currently only KTX1 supported for 2D textures and cubemaps. I'll probably add support for KTX2 and mipmaps soon.

I'd like to share Thermion, an open source 3D rendering toolkit I made for Flutter and/or Dart. This came about when I needed a 3D renderer for a Flutter app[0] I was building. At the time, the only off-the-shelf option was to embed Unity, which wasn't ideal for a few reasons - unstable build process, compositing and transparency issues, and licensing uncertainty, just to name a few.

Hi all - I wanted to showcase the current state of AI text-to-motion models, so I put together this small demo app [0]. It uses the MoMask[1] model on the backend (I'm not affiliated with that team, just a fan of their work).
