13622 :: Official SDL3 wrapper repository?

• hys (orginal) [2026-01-06T17:00:44+01:00] view original

  Hello, just out of curiosity, are any Nim maintainers planning to update the official sdl2 wrapper repository to sdl3?

  https://github.com/nim-lang/sdl2/tree/master

  It seems there are multiple sdl3 wrapper repositories out there and I thought it would be nice if this were standardized.

  I highly doubt it. There's a lot cooking for Nim right now and I know these kinds of libraries are not on the priority list. I recommend using https://github.com/dinau/sdl3_nim if you're going to pick a repo. I've used them all

  Not planned. I'm happy to create nim-lang/sdl3 though and review contributions. Follow NEP-1 for fuck's sake, I don't want SDL3_there_are_namespaces_inC_and_why_would_you_want_some names.
