  • raylib-hx

    Haxe bindings for raylib, a simple and easy-to-use library to learn videogame programming

    • I'd also recommend raylib as an option. Check out its website: http://raylib.com/. It is beginner friendly enough with good cheatsheet and examples

  • magnum

    Lightweight and modular C++11 graphics middleware for games and data visualization

    • You could try Magnum it wraps SDL and others, but you might find it maybe too low-level. It's certainly not Love2D.

  • 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.
