Top 23 C++ Cross-Platform Projects

Project mention: lcd drawing tablet screen/pen viewport "mapped" over portion of screen, wayland | /r/linux4noobs | 2023-08-25
First, conceptually this is what I mean: think about when using a good screen-capture/annotation tool like flameshot: you select a region of the screen, and "magic" you can "edit" it, "in situ". No, what I'm talking about wouldn't share any of the same technical underpinnings with the way flameshot works, it would be the live monitor output, not a raster dump of the screen made to look like it's live. And the annotating would be done on a different screen. But as a user, this is pretty similar.

sqlitebrowser
Official home of the DB Browser for SQLite (DB4S) project. Previously known as "SQLite Database Browser" and "Database Browser for SQLite". Website at:
If you want to fiddle with SQLite and don't need all the power herein, I recommend DB Browser for SQLite.

Project mention: {fmt} 10.1 released with optimized format string compilation, container support improvements and many fixes | /r/cpp | 2023-08-14
-
keepassxc
KeePassXC is a cross-platform community-driven port of the Windows application “Keepass Password Safe”.
Another regression is that KeePassX/C AutoType doesn't work with Wayland, so now instead of a simple CTRL+V in KeePassXC, I have to separately copy and paste the user and the pass.

DearPyGui
Dear PyGui: A fast and powerful Graphical User Interface Toolkit for Python with minimal dependencies
If it's just to align text in the centre or to the right of a box, you could use a button and, by using theming, hide the fact that it's a button. https://github.com/hoffstadt/DearPyGui/issues/1111

Project mention: What's the most commonly used IDE for golang development ? | /r/golang | 2023-03-17
Not common, but worth a mention: I've been using LiteIDE (https://github.com/visualfc/liteide/releases/latest) since Atom + Go dev ceased development.

Project mention: Suggestions for a framework to build a personal desktop or browser app | /r/webdev | 2023-07-15
I've been drawn to NeutralinoJS as it looks like it will do what I want, but I'm willing to hear some other recommendations and maybe tutorials on how to do the objectively simple things I've outlined above.
-
Oat++
🌱Light and powerful C++ web framework for highly scalable and resource-efficient web application. It's zero-dependency and easy-portable.
I looked at oatpp and drogon, which are both great, but feel too high-level for my purposes. I tried drogon and got something working, but it feels like too much for my requirements, as in particular I'd like to slot in my choice of Json and message-body handling. C.f. the simple approach in Crow, which I easily understand and build on.

FTXUI
Features: - Functional style. Inspired by [1] and React - Simple and elegant syntax (in my opinion). - Support for UTF8 and fullwidth chars (→ 测试). - No dependencies. - Cross platform. Linux/mac (main target), Windows (experimental thanks to contributors), - WebAssembly. - Keyboard & mouse navigation. Operating systems: - linux emscripten - linux gcc - linux clang - windows msvc - mac clang
Background: I want to make a NES Tetris) clone for the terminal, with full resolution, this is achievable through using this ▀ character, and defining back and foreground color. This would result in a 1x2 pixel and by making the game width 256x120 characters this would provide full resolution. I made some tests, creating my own encoding for the different sprites and optimizing everything, which resulted in very quick printing times, even with a normal terminal. Nearly fast enough for the full 60Hz that the NES has, when printing the whole screen. The fact that i don't need to reprint the background (except maybe a tetris), makes 60Hz a kinda realistic goal. My main concern is, that there could occur kind of a screen tearing effect, which i really want to avoid. AFAIK, ncurses has a way to print the whole "window" with a function call to avoid this issue, however I had a lot of issues when trying to use ncurses to print the entire background and figured, that there are better alternatives. I also tried FTXUI and whilst the experience of giving each "pixel" a fore- and background color was much better, i didn't quite find a way to refresh the screen like ncurses. (i think there is some kind of way with the ScreenInteractive class, but i didn't get that to work, and it seemed like there was not a way to color each pixel. with InteractiveScreen you can make your own components with the whole "text()" thing, but this isn't really what i need)

The Elixir programming language is no stranger to desktop applications as the language actually supports building them out of the box. It uses wxWidgets: a C++ library that lets developers create applications for Windows, macOS, Linux and other platforms with a single code base. But wxWidgets has a very complex API, and doesn’t solve issues that usually come with desktop applications around packaging.
