Function: init()
init(
configuration):boolean
Initialize the cornerstone-core. This function checks for WebGL context availability to determine if GPU rendering is possible. By default, it assumes a medium GPU tier.
It's the responsibility of the consumer application to provide accurate GPU tier information if needed. Libraries like 'detect-gpu' can be used for this purpose, and the result can be passed in the configuration object.
If a WebGL context is available, GPU rendering will be used. Otherwise, it will fall back to CPU rendering for supported operations.
Parameters
• configuration: Cornerstone3DConfig = config
A configuration object, which can include GPU tier information
Returns
boolean
A promise that resolves to true if cornerstone has been initialized successfully.
