ParadiSO - a minimal 2D graphics engine

ParadiSO was conceived as a heavily stripped down 2D version of my pixwerx engine. ParadiSO mimics a minimalistic approach to 2D graphics for educational purposes. It uses modern C++ and a data-driven design, but no ECS.

Educational

Some arguments for its educational side:

  • mix and match of various concepts and paradigms to write expressive but concise code
  • heavily inspired by Rust code
  • math code is eager evaluation but constexpr to compensate overheads
  • hides old-style C APIs behind a renovated facade
  • it leans heavily on the STL and its algorithms

Minimal

Because this engine should show some patterns and design concepts it tries to avoid adding unnecessary bloat.

Dependencies

ParadiSO comes with batteries included. However, it should be mentioned here:

Toolchains

ParadiSO is being developed to work on all major desktop systems.

  • Windows (Visual Studio Build Tools 2022)
  • MacOS (clang 14 or later)
  • Linux (clang 14 or later, gcc 13.2.1)

Other combinations might work but are untested.
