egl

Nim bindings for EGL, the native platform interface for rendering APIs.

About

This project contains bindings to Khronos EGL for the Nim programming language. EGL is an interface between Khronos rendering APIs such as OpenGL ES or OpenVG and the underlying native platform window system.

Supported Platforms

• Android
• FreeBSD
• iOS
• Linux
• OpenBSD
• MacOS X
• Windows

Prerequisites

Windows

The latest versions of Windows do not include support for OpenGL ES out of the box, and an emulator needs to be installed. We have tested this package with the ARM MALI OpenGL ES Emulator (see link below). Other emulators may work as well.

Dependencies

This project depends on nim-lang/x11 for FreeBSD, Linux, OpenBSD and Unix variants. It can be acquired via nimble, i.e.

nimble install x11

Usage

Import the egl module from this package to make the bindings available in your project:

import egl
