Where to start?

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

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

    A refreshingly simple data-driven game engine built in Rust

  • You could also look at bevy but it is much more involved.

  • LearnOpenGL

    Code repository of all OpenGL chapters from the book and its accompanying website https://learnopengl.com

  • 3D is a whole different beast, and the ceiling of what you can do is virtually nonexistent, but https://learnopengl.com/ is a great resource for learning both 3D graphics and OpenGL. While OpenGL may be going away in the future and be replaced by other graphics APIs, the 3D graphics part of learnopengl.com stays relevant.

  • 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.

  • Allegro

    The official Allegro 5 git repository. Pull requests welcome!

  • A while ago I was getting started with the Allegro5 game engine (+Rust bindings). It's the same engine used for Factorio. I wrote a simple egui-integration to have nicer UI options. It was mostly for myself and is thus poorly documented but maybe you get some ideas how to make it work.

  • egui

    egui: an easy-to-use immediate mode GUI in Rust that runs on both web and native

  • IslandGenerator

    Auto-generate Anno-like island and display them using Allegro and egui

  • GitHub Link

  • 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.
