Basic Geometry Types. This package aimes to offer a standard set of Geometry types, which easily work with metadata, query frameworks on geometries and different memory layouts. The aim is to create a solid basis for Graphics/Plotting, finite elements analysis, Geo applications, and general geometry manipulations - while offering a julian API, that still allows performant C-interop.
This package is a replacement for the discontinued GeometryTypes.
