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.
