SkiaSharp
SkiaSharp is a cross-platform 2D graphics API for .NET platforms based on Google's Skia Graphics Library (https://skia.org/). It provides a comprehensive 2D API that can be used across mobile, server and desktop models to render images.
What is Included
SkiaSharp provides a PCL and platform-specific bindings for:
- Mac (Console or using the Xamarin.Mac)
- Xamarin.Android
- Xamarin.iOS
- Xamarin.tvOS
- Xamarin.Mac
- Windows Desktop (Windows.Forms / WPF)
- Windows UWP
You can also build this on your particular variant of Unix to create your native libraries.
Using SkiaSharp
SkiaSharp is available as a convenience NuGet package, to use install the package like this:
nuget install SkiaSharp
Our getting started guide will walk you through both the basic setup as well as the platform specific capabilties.
The API Documentation is also available on the web to browse.
Prerequisites
Make sure the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable is installed if this error occurs:
Unable to load DLL 'libSkiaSharp.dll': The specified module could not be found.
Building SkiaSharp
First clone the repository:
$ git clone https://github.com/mono/SkiaSharp.git
Next, set up the submodules:
$ cd SkiaSharp
$ git submodule init && git submodule update
Then follow the platform-specific instructions below.
Mac OS X
Run from Bash
$ ./bootstrapper.sh -t libs
This runs the build process by using the libs build target.
Windows
You need Python 2.7 in PATH environment variable. Then you can build it:
> .\bootstrapper.ps1 -Target libs
This runs the build process by using the libs build target.
Build Targets
There are several targets available, you can specify the target as the argument to the -t command line
option in the bootstrapper script.

New Skia Features Roadmap
Google has created a nice doc with a collection of high level items they have on tap the next 6-12 months. Note it is a living document that changes based on the requirements of the library's users.
