I’m experimenting with a game and rather than deal with platform specific graphics I’m just targeting wasm and webgl and plan to embed my game in a browser runtime.
It feels less terrible than the mess that is linking platform specific logic and code.
That’s how I feel, and I was between SDL and just writing GL code myself.
The problem is I run Mac and OpenGL is at best neglected and is deprecated. If I use webgl and wasm I done have to worry about any of that, and they have sdl for wasm.
Edit: my game is going to be 2d and the UI isn’t going to be more complex than raylib. I’m just playing around but also building an idea I’ve had for years.

Or use a real cross-platform UI toolkit.
Like what?
Do you have suggestions?
Last time I looked at QT I didn’t like it
For what it’s worth, I’m not looking at electron but something like an embedded browser mode. I think qt has that
Qt is overkill if all you’re using it for is to create a window you render into, something like SDL would be better.
