Safe Areas API
Venus exposes safe-area padding (device notches + host chrome) so your layout never collides with host UI. The SDK initializes automatically on import—read the safe area when you need it and apply it to your layout.
Quick Start
import VenusAPI from '@series-inc/venus-sdk/api'
const safeArea = VenusAPI.system.getSafeArea()
applyInsets(safeArea)Layout Tips
Combine safe-area padding with your own gameplay gutters—Venus just guarantees you won't overlap system chrome.
Treat
VenusAPI.system.getSafeArea()as the source of truth (it includes both device safe areas and host chrome).
Best Practices
Keep your core canvas anchored inside the computed safe rectangle; place non-interactive backgrounds outside.
Mirror padding to physics or hitbox calculations so gameplay surfaces match UI boundaries.
Persist the merged insets in your state store to avoid recalculating for every layout component.
