README.md

libui: a portable GUI library for C

This README is being written.
Build Status

Runtime Requirements

  • Windows: Windows Vista SP2 with Platform Update or newer
  • Unix: GTK+ 3.4 or newer
  • Mac OS X: OS X 10.7 or newer

Build Requirements

  • All platforms:
    • GNU make 3.81 or newer (Xcode comes with this; on Windows you will need to get it yourself)
  • Windows: Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 or newer
    • This may be reduced to 2010 if necessary.
    • MinGW is currently unsupported. MinGW-w64 support will be re-added once the following features come in:
      • Isolation awareness
      • Linker symbols for some functions such as TaskDialog() (which I thought I submitted...)
  • Unix: nothing specific
  • Mac OS X: nothing specific, so long as you can build Cocoa programs

(TODO write some notes on make variables and cross-compiling)

Documentation

Needs to be written. Consult ui.h and the examples for details for now.
