Are there any cross-platform high-level fully programmatic mobile frameworks like Apple's SceneKit, SpriteKit, and GameplayKit that do not depend on special IDEs or visual editors?
good engines for C++ that meet your requirements https://github.com/u3d-community/U3D https://github.com/rbfx/rbfx i highly recommend taking a look at rbfx, U3D doesn't have all the fancy features that rbfx has but deep down they are the same engine almost. They are forks of Urho3D, a mature engine that has existed from the year of 2011/2010.
- The Icculus Microgrant is giving out 250 dollar grants to open source projects, please brag about your project(s) in this thread so I can see them!

Searching for Reliable Cross-Platform Rendering Framework (C/C++)
Urho3D is dead. There is the U3D project which is essentially a maintenance fork made after the original project was taken over by a crazy Russian nationalist. There is also rbfx which is a progression fork that is working to make improvements such as to the PBR rendering pipeline, making it work with C# if desired, as well as rebuilding and improving the editor. The original Urho3D is soon to be even more dead than currently, since the discourse forum is set for archival and deactivation at 4:00 AM tomorrow morning.

As of 2023, what is the state of things regarding C/C++ 3D graphics libraries for the web?
Go to: https://github.com/rbfx/rbfx, they have a discord but IIRC it's basically just a CMake build so you flip the flags to say "WebGL" or "Emscripten" or w/e and CMake will basically tell you everything that's wrong.
- rbfx: Game engine with (optional) C# support and WYSIWYG editor.
- Cross-platform open-source game engine with C# support and Unity-like editor
- Rbfx: Open-source game engine with Unity-like editor and C# support

Unity merges with IronSource
If anyone is looking for a Unity alternative, the guys at rbfx are doing a great job revamping the old Urho3D codebase: https://github.com/rbfx/rbfx
It has good C# scripting support, a nice editor and modern rendering pipeline.

Game engine for programmars
You could try Urho3D or its newer fork rbfx.

Preferred game engine
I use an engine called rbfx which is a fork of the Urho3D engine. A lot of it is just the fact that I've been using it for over a decade, so I am comfortable with it. I'm a programmer, not really comfortable with integrated editor engines such as Unity or Godot, and the easy C++ extensibility of the engine appeals to me. Plus it's decently powerful, and well supported on a lot of platforms (I build for Windows, WebGL, and very occasionally RPi for the most part) and is open source to satisfy that stubbornly libertarian side of my character.

Black Triangles
It's fun to see the evolution in e.g. these examples of image loading for Dear Imgui:
https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/wiki/Image-Loading-and-Disp...
DirectX9 will even load the image for you, DirectX11 okay we get a few more structures to fill out, DirectX12 is where it goes off the rails and we are filling out a bunch of UNKNOWN DONT_CARE JUST_DO_IT. Then of course Vulkan is the one that gets the big fat "this probably won't actually work for you" warning.
I understand whats happening, but you know sometimes I just want to display a fucking image.

Dear ImGui: Bloat-free Graphical User interface with minimal dependencies
ImGui is engine/GPU agnostic
Themeing isn't a just a retained mode thing, you can do wonders with immediate UIs, even thought (dear)ImGui doesn't provide much, you can still do wonders: https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/707#issuecomment-362...

Where do I start to learn C++ for a game development
Bonus: If you want to make desktop app with UI, then this is another great C++ library and it's also simple to learn as well. https://github.com/ocornut/imgui.

GUI library for fast prototyping
AFAIK the Rust equivalent to C++'s Dear ImGui is egui.

Stretching myself thin with Dear ImGui projects
They use a Dear ImGui, a C++ GUI library.

PCSX2 Disables Wayland Support
Aside from bugs and driver issues, Wayland has some unfortunate design limitations. For example, Dear ImGui multi-viewports don't work because "Wayland doesn't let application read or write windows positions."
https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/wiki/Multi-Viewports
This is a feature available on Windows, macOS, and of course X11. Making choices like this means desktop Linux becomes even more of a weird island that nobody wants to support.
