turdgl

Turdgl is a 2D graphics library built on top of Simple Directmedia Layer. It is CPU-based, meaning it does not perform well with intensive graphics.

This project was built as a learning experience. Therefore, it is not recommended for any serious applications.

Capabilities

This library does:

• Draw 2D shapes
• Render text
• Handle keyboard and mouse inputs
• Provide fine-grained control of primitives and their interactions

This library does not:

• Support animations*
• Provide "game engine" like functionality

*Animations and other complex graphics can be built on top of Turdgl. See go-2048-battle as an example.
