What problem does this solve or what need does it fill?

The ability to use Taffy from languages other than Rust.

What solution would you like?

Official C bindings maintained in the Taffy repository.

Additional context

  • Most languages have facilities to bind to C libraries, so a C API not only allows Taffy to be used from C/C++/Objective-C, but makes it much easier for people to create bindings to other languages that don't (yet) have their own bindings.

+1'ing this. Currently using Yoga but would like another option that is more capable of being compiled to a DLL and bound via a C ABI. My target is C#/.NET but as you pointed out there are a world of additional use cases that this would unlock.

I don't have the expertise to maintain this, but I think this is a thing that should exist. If you'd like to help maintain these, please let us know in this thread!
