sf2dlib is a simple abstraction layer over citro3d with extra functions over citro3d to make displaying simple shapes and 2d sprites easy. As long as you are not drawing millions of shapes/sprites, this library should be able to fit your use case. If you are seeking to squeeze all of the power out of your 3ds and have full control over the GPU then sf2dlib will probably not fit your use case and you should use citro3d instead. Note that there is a small overhead in using sf2dlib over citro3d, but it is negligible as long as you aren't rendering too much in a single frame.

This is based on xerpi's sf2dlib, making it more consistent with citro3d while also adding new functions and improvements. See the sample to see the new code flow.

Note: This library is deprecated. Please consider using citro3d directly instead.

Instalation

Download the library or git clone it from GitHub.
