SDL2 examples, for 25+ different programming languages

SDL2 Examples

"hello world" for SDL2 for various programming languages.

Each sample creates a window, displays an image, then waits two seconds and quits.

All executables should ideally build and run on Linux, macOS, Windows, BSD* and more, but they should at least work on Linux. Most subdirectories contains README.md files with more details, and a Makefile to have one way of building each sample.

Requirements

• The SDL 2 library.
• See the README.md file per sample for more information.

Requirements for some of the languages

• C compiler that supports C89 (ANSI C), C99 or C11, for the C samples
• A C++ compiler for the C++ sample
• GCC 4.8 or later (or clang++) for the C++11 sample
• Go 1.1 or later and the sdl2 go package (go get github.com/veandco/go-sdl2/sdl)
• MRuby with SDL2 added to the configuration file
• Nim 0.9.4 and sdl2 installed with babel
• Python 2 or 3 and PySDL2
• FPC 2.6.4 (or later than 2.4.0, must have Uint8, Uint16 and Uint32)
• Lua (tested with Lua 5.3) and lua-sdl2
• If tcc is used for compiling one of the C examples, make sure to add -DSDL_DISABLE_IMMINTRIN_H=1.

Languages that are not added yet

• Ada (see the ada directory in the ada branch if you wish to give it a spin, please create a PR if it works on Arch Linux and/or the Linux CI test also passes).
• Fortran
• Java (but I gave it a shot).
• Scheme
