   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.

   🏁 Competitors: MonoGame, Pygame

• 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 1 year 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: over 1 year 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: almost 2 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 3 years ago

• confused new dev

  The easiest option is C# and Unity, even though I think at some point (if you want to experience real programming) you'd better off using a framework. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Battlesnake Challenge #2 - JavaScript

  JavaScript is everywhere. Not only is JavaScript on every layer of the tech stack (frontend/middleware/backend), but you can also find JavaScript in every software domain. No matter if you want to do command-line tools, creative coding, or machine learning, you can do it in JavaScript. Because JavaScript is so ubiquitous, as a developer it’s the best career choice you can make. - Source: dev.to / 5 days ago

• Turbo Pascal Turns 40

  Processing (P5) had this: you can select any string of text in its IDE anl search for it in the docs, and if it's one of the built-in functions or constants it will open the associated static html page that came installed with the software, so no internet nor server required. And despite being offline you can still navigate the docs too. This feels a lost basic skill in static site generation these days. It was... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• My Google Play Developer account has been terminated

  I thought it could be funny to use the javascript version of it https://p5js.org/ in a web page and then wrap it in a Unity app, since Unity was and is the environment I use for making apps. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
