Hardware-accelerated drawing of shapes, images, and text, with an easy to
use API.
Speedy2D aims to be:
- The simplest Rust API for creating a window, rendering graphics/text, and
handling input
- Compatible with any device supporting OpenGL 2.0+ or OpenGL ES 2.0+
- Very fast
Supports Windows, Mac, and Linux. Should also work on Android and iOS
(for rendering only).
By default, Speedy2D contains support for setting up a window with an OpenGL
context, and receiving input events. If you'd like to handle this yourself, and
use Speedy2D only for rendering, you can disable the `windowing` feature.

* [All input callbacks](examples/input_callbacks.rs)
* [User-generated events](examples/user_events.rs)
The example projects can be run using `cargo run --example=hello_world` (just
change `hello_world` to the name of the example source file).

## Quick Start
**Step 1:** Add Speedy2D to your `Cargo.toml` dependencies:
```toml
[dependencies]
speedy2d = "1.0"
```
**Step 2:** Create a window:
```rust
use speedy2d::Window;
let window = Window::new_centered("Title", (640, 480)).unwrap();
```
**Step 3:** Create a struct implementing the `WindowHandler` trait. Override
whichever callbacks you're interested in, for example `on_draw()`,
`on_mouse_move()`, or `on_key_down()`.
```rust
use speedy2d::color::Color;
use speedy2d::window::{WindowHandler, WindowHelper};
use speedy2d::Graphics2D;
struct MyWindowHandler {}
impl WindowHandler for MyWindowHandler
{
fn on_draw(&mut self, helper: &mut WindowHelper, graphics: &mut Graphics2D)
{
graphics.clear_screen(Color::from_rgb(0.8, 0.9, 1.0));
graphics.draw_circle((100.0, 100.0), 75.0, Color::BLUE);
// Request that we draw another frame once this one has finished
helper.request_redraw();
}
// If desired, on_mouse_move(), on_key_down(), etc...
}
```
**Step 4:** Finally, start the event loop by passing your new `WindowHandler`
to the `run_loop()` function.
```rust
window.run_loop(MyWindowHandler{});
```
**That's it!**
For a more detailed getting started guide, including a full list of `WindowHandler`
callbacks, and how to render text, go to
[docs.rs/speedy2d](https://docs.rs/speedy2d).
The full code of the above example is below for your convenience:
```rust
use speedy2d::color::Color;
use speedy2d::{Graphics2D, Window};
use speedy2d::window::{WindowHandler, WindowHelper};
fn main() {
let window = Window::new_centered("Title", (640, 480)).unwrap();
window.run_loop(MyWindowHandler{});
}
struct MyWindowHandler {}
impl WindowHandler for MyWindowHandler
{
fn on_draw(&mut self, helper: &mut WindowHelper, graphics: &mut Graphics2D)
{
graphics.clear_screen(Color::from_rgb(0.8, 0.9, 1.0));
graphics.draw_circle((100.0, 100.0), 75.0, Color::BLUE);
helper.request_redraw();
}
}
```
### Alternative: Managing the GL context yourself
If you'd rather handle the window creation and OpenGL context management
yourself, simply disable Speedy2D's `windowing` feature in your `Cargo.toml`
file, and create a context as follows:
```rust
use speedy2d::GLRenderer;
let mut renderer = unsafe {
GLRenderer::new_for_current_context((640, 480))
}.unwrap();
```
Then, draw a frame using `GLRenderer::draw_frame()`:
```rust
renderer.draw_frame(|graphics| {
graphics.clear_screen(Color::WHITE);
graphics.draw_circle((100.0, 100.0), 75.0, Color::BLUE);
});
```
