  • libtcod

    A collection of tools and algorithms for developing traditional roguelikes. Such as field-of-view, pathfinding, and a tile-based terminal emulator.

  • The github repo says it is half C, half C++. The important thing to realize is that C++ was written on top of C, with the main new feature being classes/OOP. There is a ton of overlap between the two languages, and it is easy to mix them within the same program. If you want to stick to writing pure C yourself, you could follow a C++ tutorial and port the OOP concepts to procedural ones.

  • If you're interested, the new C++ tutorials I've been working on are here, corresponding up to tutorial 7 in the newer Python tutorials: libtcod tutorials

  • 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.
