It’s been a while since my last guest post on Adam’s blog, but I’m back with something short and practical—think of it as an epilogue to this earlier post on Bézier curves in animation. The last post focused on the theory and mathematics behind Bézier curves. What it lacked was a practical perspective—an opportunity to see the implementation in action. I wanted to share with you a simple library that I have created. Its purpose is to directly represent cubic Bézier Curves as Easing Functions.

Fast calculation of the distance to cubic Bezier curves on the GPU
Bézier curves are a core building block of text and 2D shapes rendering. There are several approaches to rendering them, but one especially challenging problem, both mathematically and technically, is computing the distance to a Bézier curve. For quadratic curves (one control point), this is fairly accessible, but for cubic (two control points) we're going to see why it is so hard.

kurvenlineal — scale fitter
kurvenlineal is a bezier easing run in reverse. Normally you start with a cubic-bezier() and sample values from it, in this case you start with the values: hand it a list of numbers and it finds the quadratic or cubic easing (endpoints fixed at 0,0 → 1,1) that stays as close as possible to all of them (a least-squares fit).
