   Raylib, a hidden Powerhouse

   I got to know Raylib just a few days ago taking a course on learning C++ to start using Unreal Engine. I have a background with assembler(a long time ago), Python/Pygame, C#/Monogame, and Unity/C#. Within the few days I used it, I am simply blown away by the simplicity but yet extremely powerful Raylib library. The routines and functions are very clear and access is very simple. Everything is well documented. I am yet to go in-depth with the library but I never had such an experience in the past building games, which is my main interest. If you stumbled upon this by chance stop and give it a go. You'll never regret it. Right now I am thinking of the many ways I can use this with the languages I know.

• New Year, New Game Engine - Nikola Engine Devlog 0

  You see, for the past several years I have used many programming languages and many more game frameworks and libraries. Programming languages like Java, C#, C++, and even, sadly, JavaScript (I know...). Game frameworks like LWJGL, SDL2, Raylib, MonoGame, SFML, and many more. Essentially, I have seen it all. Out of all of them, I think SDL2 was closer to what I was looking for, though, Raylib was the one I used the... - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Are there any game engines that support 3D that are more code orientated?

  It sounds like you're maybe asking for code frameworks/libraries instead of engines? Something like https://raylib.com/ might be better suited? Source: over 3 years ago

• How can I make graphics games using cpp?

  I would recommend SFML or Raylib, they're both excellent and fairly easy to set up, plus have really good documentation. And if you decide to really dig into them you'll eventually be able to create any game you want. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Best C++ libraries for 2D game development

  I'd also recommend raylib as an option. Check out its website: http://raylib.com/. It is beginner friendly enough with good cheatsheet and examples. Source: about 4 years ago

• Question about graphic/game libraries

  Finally, you can use raylib.com , a C library but it has a great interface and multiple examples. Howeve, it is not wide-spread like SDL. Source: almost 5 years ago

• Ask HN: Side project of more that $2k monthly revenue what's your project?

  Not OP, but have a look at [0]. It’s not great, but good enough. I regularly use it for App Store screenshots with captions and text. [0] https://theapplaunchpad.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago

• As a developer I have no experience in Photoshop so I could not make very good photos for my app in the App Store. As a last resort I decided to code them in swift and got awesome results!

  For an advanced approach that includes localizations of your text and a ton of included resources to build your designs off of, there is AppLaunchPad (which has both a screenshot version and a mockup version with free and pay-by-the-month options), there is Vernissage which has a free and a pretty cheap pro version, and then there's App-Mockup which is free web-app. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Screenshot pictures for stores

  I used this. Paid for one month and got a good use out of it. https://theapplaunchpad.com. Source: over 4 years ago

• How to take screenshots of iOS apps running on M1 Macs that include device frames?

  I used AppLaunchPad. It’s a paid service but you can go monthly for single months when you need it (US$ 29). And you can easily wrap device frames for different size and colors of iPhone and iPad around the standard screenshots that you supply. Source: almost 5 years ago
