raylib is a simple and easy-to-use library to enjoy videogames programming.

raylib is highly inspired by Borland BGI graphics lib and by XNA framework and it's specially well suited for prototyping, tooling, graphical applications, embedded systems and education.

NOTE for ADVENTURERS: raylib is a programming library to enjoy videogames programming; no fancy interface, no visual helpers, no debug button... just coding in the most pure spartan-programmers way.

basic example

This is a basic raylib example, it creates a window and it draws the text "Congrats! You created your first window!" in the middle of the screen. Check this example running live on web here.

package example

import rl "vendor:raylib"

main :: proc() {
    rl.InitWindow(800, 450, "raylib [core] example - basic window")

    for !rl.WindowShouldClose() {
        rl.BeginDrawing()
            rl.ClearBackground(rl.RAYWHITE)
            rl.DrawText("Congrats! You created your first window!", 190, 200, 20, rl.LIGHTGRAY)
        rl.EndDrawing()
    }

    rl.CloseWindow()
}

build and installation

raylib binary releases for Windows, Linux, macOS, Android and HTML5 are available at the Github Releases page.

Installing and building raylib on multiple platforms

raylib Wiki contains detailed instructions on building and usage on multiple platforms.

• Working on Windows
• Working on macOS
• Working on GNU Linux
• Working on Chrome OS
• Working on FreeBSD
• Working on Raspberry Pi

Note that the Wiki is open for edit, if you find some issues while building raylib for your target platform, feel free to edit the Wiki or open an issue related to it.

Setup raylib with multiple IDEs

raylib has been developed on Windows platform using Notepad++ and MinGW GCC compiler but it can be used with other IDEs on multiple platforms.

Projects directory contains several ready-to-use project templates to build raylib and code examples with multiple IDEs.

Note that there are lots of IDEs supported, some of the provided templates could require some review, so please, if you find some issue with a template or you think they could be improved, feel free to send a PR or open a related issue.

learning and docs

raylib is designed to be learned using the examples as the main reference. There is no standard API documentation but there is a cheatsheet containing all the functions available on the library a short description of each one of them, input parameters and result value names should be intuitive enough to understand how each function works.

Some additional documentation about raylib design can be found in raylib GitHub Wiki. Here are the relevant links:

• raylib cheatsheet
• raylib architecture
• raylib library design
• raylib examples collection
• raylib games collection
