A simple program using SDL in c++ as an example.
Compile with make and run with ./SpriteBounce
Compile with the Visual C++ Project and run the resulting exe file.
This project uses SDL2 and SDL2_image. Download them from https://www.libsdl.org/download-2.0.php and https://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_image/.
Choose runtime binaries for macOS, and place the framework in /Library/Frameworks
You will have to get SDL from your package manager e.g. sudo apt install libsdl2-dev libsdl2-image-dev
Download the development libraries for Visual C++, and update the project to have the include and library directories. Also move the DLLs into the same directory as the exe.
