AggUI is a library that allows you to build graphical applications. It provides basic primitives to render shapes and texts to a memory buffer. There is also an optional support for creating window and receiving input events. The library supports windows, macos and linux systems.
AggUI mostly consists of C# bindings for some C++ libraries:
- Antigrain Geometry for all the drawings
- Freetype to read fonts
See DESIGN.md for more details.
See BUILDING.md
To run this software, you need a dotnet runtime.
If you have installed the build dependencies, you already have everything required and can skip this section.
On windows and linux, no other additional dependencies are needed.
On macos, AggUI relies on Xorg to display it's windows. Install Xorg through macports:
sudo port install xorg-server
You then need to log-out / log back in into your session for xorg to install properly.
Look at AggUIExample for an example use of this library.
To run the example, call dotnet run from inside the example root directory:
See DOCUMENTATION.md
The original bindings were developed by Pierre Arnaud and Daniel Roux. They were refactored and adapted to be cross-platform by Roger Vuistiner and Baptiste Lambert.
