**luma.core** is a component library providing a `Pillow <https://pillow.readthedocs.io/>`_-compatible
drawing canvas for Python 3, and other functionality to support drawing primitives and
text-rendering capabilities for small displays on the Raspberry Pi and other
single board computers:

* scrolling/panning capability,
* terminal-style printing,
* state management,
* color/greyscale (where supported),
* dithering to monochrome,
* sprite animation,
* flexible framebuffering (depending on device capabilities)

Documentation
-------------

API documentation can be found at https://luma-core.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Drivers
-------

Device drivers extend **luma.core** to provide the correct initialization
sequences for specific physical display devices/chipsets.

There are several drivers for different classes of device available:

* `luma.oled <https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.oled/>`_
* `luma.lcd <https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.lcd/>`_
* `luma.led_matrix <https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.led_matrix/>`_
* `luma.emulator <https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.emulator/>`_

Emulators
---------

There are emulators that run in real-time (with pygame) and others that can
take screenshots, or assemble animated GIFs, as per the examples below. Source
code for these are available in the `examples
<https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.examples/tree/master/examples>`_
directory of the ``luma.examples`` repository.
