Hey guys, looking for a mobile application development toolkit that uses C

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/C_Programming

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • rawdrawandroid

    Build android apps without any java, entirely in C and Make

  • If you want to develop GUI apps for Android using only C, you may also want to take a look at rawdrawandroid and raylib; both of them uses NDK under the hood.

  • ndk-samples

    Android NDK samples with Android Studio

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • node-raylib

    Node.js bindings for Raylib

  • If you want to develop GUI apps for Android using only C, you may also want to take a look at rawdrawandroid and raylib; both of them uses NDK under the hood.

  • android-native-egl-example

    Discontinued Sample that shows how to combine native rendering with Java UI on Android

  • Example code (cpp though): https://github.com/tsaarni/android-native-egl-example

  • nuklear

    This project provides Go bindings for nuklear.h — a small ANSI C GUI library. (by golang-ui)

  • If you need the GUI system, then you will be binding against Java and it will be very time consuming. You might be better off looking at some of the young wxWidgets / Qt Android ports. Or simply using a light OpenGL based UI library like Nuklear (or newer).

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
