quil VS OpenFrameworks

We’re pleased to announce Quil version 4.3.1323, the first general release of Quil in four years! You can find the jar at Clojars and the release notes at Github. Thanks to Clojurists Together for sponsoring this work! :)

The quick run speed is great for shortening the feedback loop. I've had great experiences with Lisp-style environments for that reason, and the language is much higher level than Rust while still offering good performance. I've mainly used Quil, the Clojure wrapper around processing: https://github.com/quil/quil

I can't seem to find any clear information on this, only bit and pieces on the repo https://github.com/quil/quil. It doesn't seem to get any updates and Processing 4 and Java 9, seems to brake. SO the project is dead right?

Quil[0] repo has either a homage to _why, or _why has contributed the intro.

Maybe. I thought of using quil for my web enablement needs, but decided that with how few people know Clojurescript, I wouldn't be able to truly share the code in practice.

but if all your trying to do is get something running real quick using quil https://github.com/quil/quil/wiki/Installing

Not exactly VJ, but could be used for it. https://openframeworks.cc

Since you have C# experience, take this time to learn more about C++ while you continue to look. While yes, it is very easy to write bad code, it's not a huge deal since you just graduated and are just hacking around. Plus there are a lot of helpers these days to make writing bad code a little less likely.A former mentor of mine gifted me "C++ Without Fear" by Brian Overland which I can recommend. It's not too expensive, I think it was $25 or something like that, likely less used. Also comes in E-book form.If you'd like a gentler introduction to C++, may I recommend openFrameworks?

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

Not sure it checks all your boxes, but check openFrameworks?

I recently heard of openFrameworks which should make it pretty easy to make your game. It handles putting together a bunch of other libraries and window management so you can focus on drawing some shapes on the screen and handling user input. Sounds like love2d but all C++.

let me know if I can help out - also checkout the forum at openframeworks.cc - the people there are very friendly and helpful - especially with people that are completely new to oF...

I mean, https://www.libcinder.org and https://openframeworks.cc have been mainstays of the creative coding industry for a long time now. A Rust take on the problem shouldn't be too surprising.
