Acknowledgements

Taichi, like many other open-source projects, is based on other open-source projects:

• stb_image, stb_image_write, stb_truetype
• tinyobjloader
• fmt
• spdlog
• Catch2
• JIXIE::ImplicitQRSVD
• dcraw
• Intel Embree
• Intel TBB
• ffmpeg

Note that all of them are bundled in taichi (in source (header)/binary forms), and users do not have to manually install them.
