Plutonium is a high-level, C++ graphical library with the aim of making UIs in a more simple, user-friendly way. | |||
It uses libnx and SDL2, so both libraries are required. | |||
To be more exact, this libraries should be installed via pacman: | |||
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap">switch-sdl2 switch-sdl2_ttf switch-sdl2_image switch-sdl2_gfx switch-sdl2_mixer switch-mesa switch-glad switch-glm switch-libdrm_nouveau switch-libwebp switch-libpng switch-freetype switch-bzip2 switch-libjpeg-turbo switch-opusfile switch-libopus</span> | |||
==User guide== | |||
Plutonium internally uses SDL2 for UI rendering. | |||
Plutonium's API is based on WPF/WinForms's system. The user doesn't directly interact with the rendering, as it's done via a main rendering system and different objects to render. | |||
Check the [https://github.com/XorTroll/Plutonium/blob/master/Example basic example] for a basic usage of the libraries. In case you want to see a really powerful app which really shows what Plutonium is capable of, take a look at [https://github.com/XorTroll/Goldleaf Goldleaf], [https://github.com/XorTroll/uLaunch uLaunch] or many other homebrew apps made using this libraries. | |||
Check the [https://github.com/XorTroll/Plutonium#using-this-libraries readme] and [https://xortroll.github.io/Plutonium/ documentation] for a more detailed explanation of the library's usage. | |||

Plutonium is a high-level, C++ graphical library with the aim of making UIs in a more simple, user-friendly way.
It uses libnx and SDL2, so both libraries are required.
To be more exact, this libraries should be installed via pacman:
switch-sdl2 switch-sdl2_ttf switch-sdl2_image switch-sdl2_gfx switch-sdl2_mixer switch-mesa switch-glad switch-glm switch-libdrm_nouveau switch-libwebp switch-libpng switch-freetype switch-bzip2 switch-libjpeg-turbo switch-opusfile switch-libopus
User guide
Plutonium internally uses SDL2 for UI rendering.
Plutonium's API is based on WPF/WinForms's system. The user doesn't directly interact with the rendering, as it's done via a main rendering system and different objects to render.
Check the basic example for a basic usage of the libraries. In case you want to see a really powerful app which really shows what Plutonium is capable of, take a look at Goldleaf, uLaunch or many other homebrew apps made using this libraries.
Check the readme and documentation for a more detailed explanation of the library's usage.
