Cinder VS pipx

Have you come across openFrameworks (https://openframeworks.cc/) or Cinder (https://libcinder.org/)?

CProcessing reminds me of Cinder

I only used SFML, currently making a 2D isometric game. I really like it so far overall, easy to use IMO, pretty well documented. Does what I need it to do. Heard good things about SDL2 and also Cinder++ (https://libcinder.org/) also.

What kind of game? You might be better off using a game engine unless it's more of a simple starter project. Check out https://libcinder.org/ or see lots of engines here: https://github.com/collections/game-engines

Cinder

Try Cinder (https://libcinder.org/). I have not tried it myself but it seems to have the same goals as P5 and Processing (ie. creative coding).

Kind of a shorty thing for Meta to do when Cinder is already taken by https://libcinder.org

or its C++ cousins openFrameworks and Cinder

Use pipx to install Cog and my aws-sso-config-builder tool in the same environment:

Given how useful pre-commit is across projects I generally recommend installing via pip install --user, making it part of a tooling virtual environment, or using pipx:

I would recommend going with PipX. You toss in a setup.py file, put your project on github, and then anyone on any OS can pipx install your project. It's a glorious thing. The only thing they need is 1) some supported version of Python installed, 2) pipx installed. They can even get updates by calling pipx upgrade.

See https://github.com/pypa/pipx/issues/278

Good overview. There are quite a few on there I was not aware of. That said, I am not sure the organizational schema makes a tone of sense. I would assume most users that come across this would be looking for a package manager for a specific platform and then weighing the options of binary/source/etc., instead of the other way around.

Also, pipx (https://github.com/pypa/pipx) would be a good addition to the list. I'd add it but I'm not sure where it would go. Maybe every section? It's cross platform and handles both binary and source based app distributions.

Pip is pretty simple and useful for me - you have your own environment for every script/program, requirements.txt is simple to understand too... It's kinda good solution for regular users... For more complex projects we have Poetry, PipX, that was inspired by NPM(x), I think...

What benefit would joining your cult bestow upon me that brew does not already?

My brew list is intentionally very short and my faffing about desire is limited.

Generally I use brew to pull in asdf (https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf) to install programming languages/tooling, it works flawlessly.

I use Pipx (https://github.com/pypa/pipx) to install python thingies (such as yt-dlp) as a cli. Go and Rust handle binaries in their languages beautifully and without issues.
