+## Hard requirements:
+- Must be written in C
+- Must be RETAINED MODE with a document structure that loads from disk
+- Must be versitile and independent so it can be used for Games, Desktop App GUI, etc.
+- Must be easy to initalize
+- Must have a friendly document language (My first thought is Lua as the documenting language)
+- Must have full Lua API for realtime changes and modability
+- Must be NATIVE and not use a webview or web backend at all

+- Must compile to native Linux, Windows, Mac, etc, as well as Web (WASM)

+

+- Use an existing project to calculate layouts and render commands
+
