Cocos2d
Cocos2d-x is a suite of open-source, cross-platform, game-development tools utilized by millions of developers across the globe. Its core has evolved to serve as the foundation for Cocos Creator 1.x & 2.x.
That's all I can really tell you from what you've posted. The original version without the Blowfish encryption is open source (eg. https://github.com/cocos2d/cocos2d-x/blob/v4/cocos/scripting/lua-bindings/manual/CCLuaStack.cpp) , and I don't really understand how why you have so much symbol information available if what you're trying to disassemble isn't also probably open source

filament
Filament is a real-time physically based rendering engine for Android, iOS, Windows, Linux, macOS, and WebGL2
Also beginner here, I think you can learn other's codes to get a better understanding of the API by learning how others can abstract these concept into higher level. They're many great projects out there like Google's pbr renderer filament https://github.com/google/filament, AMD's gltf sample https://github.com/GPUOpen-LibrariesAndSDKs/glTFSample and also as many suggested, the Sascha Willems's repos https://github.com/SaschaWillems and the official sample https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Samples

bgfx
Cross-platform, graphics API agnostic, "Bring Your Own Engine/Framework" style rendering library.
Project mention: The Ultimate Cross-Platform Rendering Engine? | /r/GraphicsProgramming | 2023-08-18BGFX: Pretty mature and easy to use with many backends.
-
cocos-engine
Cocos simplifies game creation and distribution with Cocos Creator, a free, open-source, cross-platform game engine. Empowering millions of developers to create high-performance, engaging 2D/3D games and instant web entertainment.
-
The-Forge
The Forge Cross-Platform Rendering Framework PC Windows, Linux, Ray Tracing, macOS / iOS, Android, XBOX, PS4, PS5, Switch, Quest 2
To my understanding, every source I've read says that this should cause issues, but in practice it doesn't. What gives? Did I miss something? Here are multiple examples using the latter approach.

LLGL
Low Level Graphics Library (LLGL) is a thin abstraction layer for the modern graphics APIs OpenGL, Direct3D, Vulkan, and Metal
Project mention: Looking to create a engine (for fun) and am willing to rethink my stack from scratch. Should I go with Rust/wgpu/web-based UI, or C++/Vulkan/Qt, or even some other stack? | /r/GraphicsProgramming | 2023-06-05LLGL Looks like a good alternative to BGFX, I haven't tried it though.

InfluxDB
Collect and Analyze Billions of Data Points in Real Time. Manage all types of time series data in a single, purpose-built database. Run at any scale in any environment in the cloud, on-premises, or at the edge.
-
ShaderConductor
ShaderConductor is a tool designed for cross-compiling HLSL to other shading languages
Have you seen this project: https://github.com/microsoft/ShaderConductor? It is maintained by Microsoft as well.

Project mention: [P] - VkFFT now supports quad precision (double-double) FFT computation on GPU | /r/MachineLearning | 2023-09-27
Hello, I am the creator of the VkFFT - GPU Fast Fourier Transform library for Vulkan/CUDA/HIP/OpenCL/Level Zero and Metal. In the latest update, I have added support for quad-precision double-double emulation for FFT calculation on most modern GPUs. I understand that modern ML is going in the opposite low-precision direction, but I still think that it may be useful to have this functionality at least for some prototyping and development of concepts.

MethaneKit
🎲 Modern 3D graphics made simple with C++17 cross-platform framework and rendering abstraction API on top of DirectX 12, Metal & Vulkan
Project mention: Searching for Reliable Cross-Platform Rendering Framework (C/C++) | /r/gamedev | 2023-01-19I have had my eye on MethaneKit for a while, it may not be far enough along for what you want.

Metaforce for Metroid Prime is a thing that nobody ever seems to notice exists: https://axiodl.com/

metal-cpp
Metal-cpp is a low-overhead C++ interface for Metal that helps developers add Metal functionality to graphics apps, games, and game engines that are written in C++.
Project mention: Show HN: C-ocoa, Write iOS/macOS apps in any language, with a generated C API | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-11This is basically also what the "official" C++ API for Metal does (https://developer.apple.com/metal/cpp/), it's an automatically generated bindings wrapper which calls into ObjC runtime functions.
I also dabbled a bit with this idea by parsing clang AST-dumps of macOS system headers:
https://github.com/floooh/objc-ast-experiments
Unfortunately this is very brittle, and also broke on ARM CPUs, I guess the shim code needs some ABI adjustments (famously, objc_msgSend has multiple "ABI shapes": https://www.mikeash.com/pyblog/objc_msgsends-new-prototype.h...).
