🎬 Testing SDL2 with V, Rust, C/++ : Nuklear, ImGui, TTF, 2D/3D, joystick, sounds, music, ...
sdl2test
Small examples of libSDL2 usage in V, C and C++ languages. Historically, the purpose was to evaluate the changes from SDL1 to SDL2.
Note that the V modules wrapping : SDL2, Imgui and Nuklear have been moved to their separate git repo, and are still used/demonstrated here as git sub-modules.
You can find their own repos here:
- cratesan is a Sokoban clone, in Rust and V

- tvintris_v.v is a dual-player (local) version, inspired by ancient game Twintris. It uses published vpm module nsauzede.vsdl2

- tvintrisgl_v.v is a dual-player (local) version with OpenGL, inspired by ancient game Twintris. It uses published vpm module nsauzede.vsdl2 This OpenGL version still lacks TTF font for now, however


Credits
- tetris_v.v is just and SDL2 port of original source from vlang/v example by Alex I wrote a simple SDL2 V wrapper, ported GLFW usage to SDL2, tweaked colors and added music & sounds

Colors, Music and Sounds ripped from amiga title Twintris (1990 nostalgia !)
- Graphician : Svein Berge
- Musician : Tor Bernhard Gausen (Walkman/Cryptoburners)
Dependencies
Ubuntu :
$ sudo apt install libsdl2-ttf-dev libsdl2-mixer-dev libssl-dev
And optionally for extra tests :
$ sudo apt install libglfw3-dev libglm-dev libfreetype-dev
Archlinux:
$ sudo pacman -S glew glm
And maybe other similar packages as for Ubuntu above?
ClearLinux : (maybe miss libopenssl dev ?)
$ sudo swupd bundle-add devpkg-SDL2_ttf devpkg-SDL2_mixer
Windows/MSYS2 : (maybe miss libopenssl dev ?)
$ pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-SDL2_ttf mingw-w64-x86_64-SDL2_mixer
How to build all (including vsdl2, vnk, vig..)
Eg: on Linux:
sdl2test$ make
Can then run eg: VNK, VIG demo:
sdl2test$ ./mainnk.exe
sdl2test$ ./mainig.exe
Misc
Makefile auto-detects available SDL version (2 or 1)
Old notes:
- vsdl : naive V wrapper for SDL2 binding (obsolete - rather see nsauzede/vsdl2)
- CSDL : small C++ class to abstract SDL1/2
- various C and V examples
