🍜 (read desc)

ramen

This is a windowing library that was once meant to be pretty nice but now serves as a backbone for OpenGMK, mostly hacked together in a few weeks. I do not recommend using it for any purpose.

Features

input

Enabled by default, provides events for keyboard and mouse input.

parking-lot

Replaces the synchronisation primitives with those from parking_lot for improved performance. Recommended in release mode.

Building

ramen is purposefully minimal on dependencies, so for the most part, you’ll be able to just add it as a dependency for your project with no extra hassle. To build with the X11 backend (usually when building for Linux), you’ll need the development files installed for the following libraries:

• libX11
• libxcb

If the input feature is enabled:

• libxcb-xinput
• libxkbcommon

The corresponding libraries will also need to be installed on the target machine - otherwise you’ll get an Unsupported error from Connection::new().

Licence

Due to the proprietary nature of games, ramen is available under the short and permissive zlib/libpng licence.
