Hi, looking at the code I get the perception of "not invented here" syndrome. For example, re-implementing a thread-safe queue:

Question: How to create OpenGL C# Bindings from scratch? (Bear with me please...)
1 project | /r/csharp | 4 Aug 2022

So, for example, Veldrid, a low cross-platform graphics API-agnostic rendering and compute library for .NET, has its own bindings to provide different graphics backends. How were those created? Is it a completely manual process? are tools available? How are those maintained?

Veldrid is a lower level engine that abstracts away a bunch of backends for you. Youll have to build your own pieces on top.

Veldrid for graphics although I think SILK.net would also work well.

If you’re interested in C#, You could look into Veldrid. It is 3D however, so im not sure how easy it is to do 2D with it. ImGui.NET is a set of .NET bindings for Dear ImGui, which is one of the best immediate mode gui librarys out there imo. It has a canvas feature which allows you to draw 2D shapes via the gui renderer. Also, the creator of Veldrid and ImGui.NET has an example project for ImGui.NET using veldrid..

Veldrid attempts to wrap several graphics api, directx11, metal, opengl, and vulkan. You would have to write most things from scratch but this lib will work cross platform. Probably not consoles though.
