About
raylib is a free and open-source C programming library designed for game development with no external dependencies. It supports multiple platforms including Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, and HTML5, with hardware-accelerated graphics via OpenGL. The library emphasizes simplicity and a code-first approach, offering over 120 examples and bindings for more than 60 programming languages.
Problem
Game development libraries are often too complex or rely on heavy external dependencies, making it hard for programmers to get started quickly.
For
developers and programmers who want to learn or build videogames in a simple, code-focused way
How it works
Developers include the raylib C library in their projects and use its minimalistic API — guided by a cheatsheet and examples — to handle graphics, audio, input, and more across multiple platforms.
