Adding `simple` library as a dependency

Run this command in a terminal, in your project's directory:

cargo add simple

To add it manually, edit your project's Cargo.toml file and add to the [dependencies] section:

simple = "0.3.0"

The simple library will be automatically available globally. Read the simple library documentation.

Readme

simple

Simple is supposed to be a completely obvious and intuitive game library for Rust. Simple was inspired by LOVE2D. I wrote Simple because I liked the ease-of-use that LOVE2D provided but I wanted the advantage of a typed compiler (Rust).

Simple is a layer built on top of the sdl2 package. You will need some development C libraries. On MacOS, you can use Brew to install them with brew install sdl2. On Linux, look for a libsdl2-dev package in your package manager.

Hello World

let mut app = simple::Window::new("hello world", 1920, 1080);

app.set_color(255, 0, 255, 255);
app.draw_rect(simple::Rect{
    x: 100,
    y: 110,
    w: 120,
    h: 130,
});

while app.next_frame() {}
