Summary description: A Lua library for drawing Euclidean geometry with TikZ or tkz-euclide
Announcement text:
- Package additions - added functions for creating circles "through" and "diameter" - adding centers with “kimberling” method X(55), X(56), X(371) - added “kenmotu_circle” and “kenmotu_point” methods - added start of error handling with "tex.error" - Documentation - correction of some file headers (date and name) - start of documentation reformatting; classification of examples - addition in the examples, circles of Yff, Adams, Van Lamoen, Kenmotu
The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/tkz-elements The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/tkz/tkz-elements/

tkz-elements – A Lua library for drawing Euclidean geometry with TikZ or tkz-euclide
This package provides a library written in Lua, allowing to make all the necessary calculations to define the objects of a Euclidean geometry figure. You need to compile with LuaLaTeX. The definitions and calculations are only done with Lua.
The main possibility of programmation proposed is oriented “object programming” with object classes like point, line, triangle, circle and now, conic. For the moment, once the calculations are done, it is tkz-euclide or TikZ which allows the drawings.
