Deprecating this repository in favor of the rewrite https://github.com/enaut/turtlers/

[enaut]

Hey all,

I rewrote turtle from scratch it is a little different from this but has more or less the same capabilities.

Disclaimer: AI was used when writing the turtle crates. Though I tried my best to make sure it is not slop, and I am using my turtle crate in class for some years now.

The Architecture:

• tokio
• macroquad
• lyon
• tween
• macros for easy start

Additional features to this crate:

• works on wayland, probably works on Mac and Windows too (untested)
• non linear animation (slower on the start and end of the segment fast in the middle)
• actual turtle shape
• better arc/circle drawing
• way more performant

My turtle: https://github.com/enaut/turtlers/
It is not yet published on crates.io
Beginners guide for my turtle in german: https://anleitung-rust.github.io/

Things I'd like to discuss:

1. I maintain my turtle in parallel to this version - happens anyway. Would you like to co-maintain?
2. We add a note to this repo with the deprecation and archive it and add a link to the new repos. (as this repo is dysfunctional on many platforms and dependencies are very outdated)
3. We replace the code in this repo or create a rust/turtle organization.
4. We update https://turtle.rs/ with the new crate I could maintain the new page.
5. Should I take over the domain turtle.rs?
6. Any other proposition?

All of these are discussion points - you are free to decline all of those, no hard feelings. I just think it might be for the greater good if there existed only one functional turtle implementation/documentation.

What is your take on this?

Thank you so much for replying.
