About Refresh
|
|
|
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
|
Refresh is directly inspired by FNA3D and intended to be a replacement for XNA's Graphics namespace.
|
|
|
|
|
XNA 4.0 is a powerful API, but its shader system is outdated and certain restrictions are awkward to handle in a modern context.
|

|
|
|
In the way that XNA was "one step above" DX9, Refresh intends to be "one step above" Vulkan. It should map nicely to modern graphics APIs.
|

|
|
|
Refresh will initially have a Vulkan runtime implementation. Support for other APIs like DX12 may come later.

|
|
|
For shaders, we consume SPIR-V bytecode.

Dependencies
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
2020-12-17 02:12:20 +00:00
|
|
|
Refresh depends on SDL2 for portability.
|
2020-12-15 23:27:06 +00:00
|
|
|
Refresh never explicitly uses the C runtime.
