Description

Gideros is an open-source and free framework designed for cross-platform game development, allowing developers to craft high-performance 2D games using the Lua programming language. It streamlines the testing process on actual devices via Wi-Fi, removing the need for time-consuming export or deployment steps. Constructed with C/C++ and OpenGL, Gideros guarantees that games operate at native speeds, maximizing the potential of both CPUs and GPUs. The framework is easily extensible through plugins, which enable developers to incorporate pre-existing code written in C, C++, Java, or Objective-C, and connect it to Lua seamlessly. Gideros features its own class system aligned with standard object-oriented programming conventions, promoting clean, modular, and reusable code. The all-encompassing development environment consists of a lightweight IDE, players compatible with desktops and devices, as well as tools for texture packing and font creation. Gideros is compatible with various platforms, such as Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and HTML5, ensuring that developers can reach a broad audience with their games. This versatility makes Gideros an appealing choice for indie developers and small studios aiming to produce engaging gaming experiences.

Description

WebGL is an open, cross-platform web standard that serves as a low-level 3D graphics API derived from OpenGL ES, and it is accessed through ECMAScript using the HTML5 Canvas element. For those who are familiar with OpenGL ES 2.0, WebGL will feel familiar as it is a Shader-based API that utilizes GLSL and employs constructs that closely mirror the original OpenGL ES API. The implementation of WebGL adheres closely to the specifications of OpenGL ES, although it makes certain adjustments to accommodate the expectations of developers working in memory-managed languages like JavaScript. The initial version, WebGL 1.0, supports features from OpenGL ES 2.0, while the subsequent version, WebGL 2.0, aligns with the OpenGL ES 3.0 API. By enabling 3D graphics directly in the browser without the need for plugins, WebGL significantly enhances web development. Prominent web browsers, including Apple’s Safari, Google’s Chrome, Microsoft’s Edge, and Mozilla’s Firefox, actively participate in the WebGL Working Group. Developers can also find valuable discussions and resources about WebGL on platforms like Google Groups and StackOverflow, which can help them navigate the intricacies of 3D web applications. This collaborative environment encourages innovation and fosters a community of developers passionate about harnessing the power of 3D graphics on the web.
