    Dear ImGui: Bloat-free Graphical User interface for C++ with minimal dependencies

    Project mention: Stretching myself thin with Dear ImGui projects | dev.to | 2023-11-28

    They use a Dear ImGui, a C++ GUI library.

  • zeal

    Offline documentation browser inspired by Dash

    Project mention: Ask HN: How do I code offline for a week? | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-01

    There’s stuff like https://zealdocs.org/ that allow you to take all relevant documentation with you so offline coding will work.

    If you just want to be productive, you could also bring a lot of books or downloaded tutorials on a drive.

    Btw, make sure your drive is encrypted and you think of a way to backup your data so you don’t lose the offline progress.

  • DPP

    Project mention: How to add runtime dependencies to flake so they can be found (gtkmm4, shared-mime-info)? | /r/NixOS | 2023-05-11

    For me it just fails on dpp wrap file not containing a valid URL. And if I change it to https://github.com/brainboxdotcc/DPP, it fails on the repo not containing a meson.build file. And if I comment out the dependency it fails due to non-existent include/ directory. And if I comment that out, it succeeds just fine.

  • glaze

    Extremely fast, in memory, JSON and interface library for modern C++

    Project mention: More helpful reflection in Glaze for GCC and Clang (MSVC please take note) | /r/cpp | 2023-11-29

    Previously in the Glaze library, you would need to write out your key names along with the member object pointers. However, as of version 1.8.0, these key names are now optional. If the keys are not provided the member variable name will be reflected for serialization/deserialization. I'm even more excited about this reflection than the previously announced pure Clang reflection, because it works well with user customization and supports non-aggregate, non-default constructible, and non-constexpr types.

    The Open Lighting Architecture - The Travel Adaptor for the Lighting Industry

    Project mention: Magicq/enttec USB dmx Pro issues | /r/ChamSys | 2023-03-21

    You won’t be able to use both universes usb connection. But I use my own mkII via Ola running on a virtual machine and a unicast artnet connection. Never had an issue with this setup and it allows to use both universes. This could help solving you crash issue…

    Project mention: Stable Diffusion on AMD RDNA™ 3 Architecture | /r/hardware | 2022-12-21

  • ArduinoCore-API

    Hardware independent layer of the Arduino cores defining the official API

    Project mention: Need to learn Arduino Programming Language | /r/arduino | 2023-07-11

    If you want to really learn it I'd recommend Bro Codes C guide, that'll make it easier to understand, his C++ guide is a bit longer but once you know C++ it's a matter of going to the Arduino references and looking for the function you need.

  • v-hud

    An open source UI re-implementation based on GTA:V, built for GTA: San Andreas.

  • Fwog

    Froggy OpenGL Engoodener

    Project mention: OpenGL is not dead, long live Vulkan | /r/opengl | 2023-04-10

    Yup. I love how easy it is to use OpenGL, and I've even spent time making a "modern" wrapper for it, but I'm still bitten by its quirks on a regular basis.
