What is Inkling?

inkling is a library which reads stories written in Ink and presents their content to the user. It is an interface, not a game engine: it validates the script and returns the text, but it is up to the caller to take that text and use it however they want in their game.

Why use inkling?

• Simple interface
• Rust native
• Support for non-latin alphabets in identifiers
• Few dependencies: optional serde dependency for easy saving and loading, and optional rand dependency for adding randomized features

Why not?

• Fewer features than Inkle’s implementation of the language
• Untested in serious work loads and large scripts: expect bugs
• Written by a hobbyist, who cannot promise quick fixes or support
