Quake Tools is a modern C++ reimplementation of the original Quake development tools, focused on accuracy, portability, and maintainability. Inspired by the spirit of classic development environments, this project aims to preserve original behavior while making the tools easier to build and run on modern systems.

The tools are being rewritten in C++ and use SDL2 as a compatibility layer for cross-platform support.

Quake Tools aims to:

• Faithfully reproduce the behavior of the original Quake tools, including the QuakeC compiler and map utilities.
• Improve portability across platforms without changing core behavior.
• Serve as a foundation for studying or modifying the Quake toolchain.
• Provide clean, readable C++ code suitable for learning and extension.
