BBGL

BareBones Graphics Library is just a small library im making which gives you the bare minimum to make rendering projects

installation

1. download or clone the project
2. insert it in your project
3. add bbgl.cpp and graphic_buffers.cpp to your makefile

usage

1. declare the needed variables

   BBGL *bbgl;
   void update();

2. fill the update and draw functions

   void update() {
       /** This i where you do logic stuff **/
       return;
   }

3. create the BBGLOPTIONS object

   BBGLOPTIONS bbglOptions;
   bbglOptions.windowOptions.maxHeight = 1024;
   bbglOptions.windowOptions.maxWidth = 1024;
   bbglOptions.windowOptions.allowResize = true;

4. create the bbgl object

   int main() {
       bbgl = new BBGL(bbglOptions);
       bbgl->update = update;
       bbgl->start();
       std::cout << "GoodBye World!" << std::endl;
       return 0;
   }

5. change pixel data of the window

   bbgl->buffs->set_pixel(x, y, RGB(255,255,255));

   you can also use safe_set_pixel to prevent crashes but it is a bit slower

   bbgl->buffs->safe_set_pixel(x, y, RGB(255,255,255)); //RGB is a macro to turn 4 byte to a uint32_t

Note: Everything after bbgl->start() will only be called after the window is closed. If you need to setup things before the first
update you can do it before calling bbgl->start()

limitation

1. scaling

   For now BBGL does not scale the buffer when resizing the window.

2. OS

   BBGL is completely dependent on the Windows API.

You are welcome to post issues or pull requests in this repository.
It would be greatly appreciated to get a Mac and Linux implementation.
