Raylib Submodule-able Fork

Based on raylib v5.5

About Raylib

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 especially 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.

Lisha here. I love this GIF. My neurodivergent brain finds it extremely satisfying and hypnotizing :p

This Minimal, Slimmed, CMake-only fork

⚠️This repository is meant to be used only as a sub-module dependency for games.
⚠️It is not intended to be built standalone and does not include examples.

What I removed:

• IDE templates
• Alternate build systems
• examples/
• projects/
• tools/
• ..etc (I don't remember)

Original repo: Raylib

basic example

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

#include "raylib.h"

int main(void)
{
    InitWindow(800, 450, "raylib [core] example - basic window");

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

    CloseWindow();

    return 0;
}

Usage (CMake Submodule)

1. Add this repository in your game's as a submodule:
   git submodule add https://github.com/lishacodesgames/slim-raylib.git raylib
2. Add it in your project's CMakeLists.txt:

add_subdirectory(raylib)

# eg. if your main.c or main.cpp is in src/ and your executable's name is "YourProjectName"
add_executable(YourProjectName src/main.cpp) 
target_link_libraries(YourProjectName PRIVATE raylib)
