I wrote a simple Go->C++ compiler to use for gameplay programming. Here's a demo of its use for my game project (along with an editor tool). I show the generated C++ in the end of the video. Compiler source code is ~1500 lines, link in video description. Will do a deeper public release soon!

• go2cpp

  2 236 6.9 Go

  Discontinued A converter from Go to C++

not sure exactly about OPs use case, but for Ebiten a go to c++ conversion was done for Nintendo Switch support -- https://github.com/hajimehoshi/go2cpp

• entt

  79 9,469 9.8 C++

  Gaming meets modern C++ - a fast and reliable entity component system (ECS) and much more

Interop: With this compiler I have direct interop to existing C++ libraries and codebases. For example I use EnTT for the entity-component data storage in the game demo here, and I'm able to call to the C++ including Go's generic syntax translating to template calls. That's not as easy with Cgo (and also Cgo adds huge overhead)

• SurveyJS

  surveyjs.io featured

  Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  

• asyncrun.vim

  27 1,820 7.2 Vim Script

  :rocket: Run Async Shell Commands in Vim 8.0 / NeoVim and Output to the Quickfix Window !!

That is indeed Vim! I use AsyncRun for the build in another buffer, and the refactoring is coc-go with coc.nvim.

• coc-go

  1 561 7.7 TypeScript

  Go language server extension using gopls for coc.nvim.

That is indeed Vim! I use AsyncRun for the build in another buffer, and the refactoring is coc-go with coc.nvim.

• coc.nvim

  320 23,945 9.0 TypeScript

  Nodejs extension host for vim & neovim, load extensions like VSCode and host language servers.

• Azul3D

  2 598 0.0 C

  Azul3D - A 3D game engine written in Go! (by azul3d)

  

Interesting work Nikki, I've definitely considered going down this path once or twice with Azul3D in years past, cool to see you've gone much further with it than I ever did.

• zig-wasm-test

  1 14 10.0 Zig

Re: Zig, yup Zig is actually among the closest to the design that I was looking for. I did a dive into using it from Wasm (https://github.com/nikki93/zig-wasm-test) including binding to UI like I do for my editor. Ultimately some issues I had were stability (at the time I then updated to a new Zig version and that broke things) and also some specific things like I want field attributes that I can reflect on in static reflection (they do have a proposal for this in their GitHub issues). I do think it's pretty close and viable, totally possible I stuck with it. It's also getting an official C compilation backend which is intetesting.
