I also created glyphon (https://github.com/grovesNL/glyphon) which renders 2D text using wgpu and cosmic-text. It uses a dynamic glyph texture atlas, which works fine in practice for most 2D use cases (I use it in production).
I did something similar with cosmic-text and glium, but it would be fun to have a vector rendering mode to do fancier stuff with glyph outlines and transforms for games and 3D stuff. And open source, of course.
I suppose vello is heading there but whenever I tried it the examples always broke in some way.
