Chitra
Chitra (Chitra means Drawing in Kannada language) is a 2D graphics library that lets you write simple https://dlang.org/[D] code to generate 2D graphics. WIP Lua bindings helps to integrate Chitra with other programming languages very easily. This is based on Cairo graphics and Pango libraries. The syntax is inspired by Drawbot (https://www.drawbot.com) and Processing (https://processing.org). The library is not only limited to D language apps, but it can be used with other programming languages or CLI using the Lua bindings. Lua bindings, curve support, and many other feature development work is in progress.
Sanka

One FOSS maintainer lesson for your younger self
First write the documentation of your future project and then start working on it.
Why do you do it? Why do you bother maintaining a FOSS project?
I was introduced to FOSS when I joined local Linux user groups and participated in Linux install fests from 2006. I was very amazed by the idea of publishing our code for others to use and contribute. Since then, I have been contributing and maintaining many open-source projects.
If your repo had a theme song, what would it be?
Which file in your project would you most like to set on fire?
Documentation in code and the test cases.
What's your open-source villain origin story?
Don't have any!
