## What it is
A Rust library and CLI implementing Multiresolution Stochastic Texture Synthesis, a non-parametric example-based algorithm for generating images from one or more example textures. It supports single and multi-example generation, remixing, and inpainting.

## Use cases
- generate seamless textures from a single example image
- remix multiple example images into a new texture
- inpaint or fill missing regions in an image
- procedurally generate game textures
- create texture variations for art pipelines

## When to choose
- you need example-based texture synthesis in Rust
- you want a CLI or library for texture generation and inpainting
- you need deterministic, non-ML texture synthesis

## When to avoid
- you need actively maintained software - Embark is seeking new maintainers
- you need ML/GAN-based texture generation
- you need a GUI tool

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: image-processing, cli
- domain: graphics, image-processing
- platform: rust, cross-platform, cli
- tags: texture-synthesis, procedural-generation, inpainting, non-parametric, multiresolution, game-development
