GEPARD Build Status Gitter

The Gepard aims to be a hardware accelerated 2D rendering engine.

Aside from the main goal (that is hardware accelerated) we aim to create an engine which is:

  • lightweight: as there should be only rendering related part in the code.
  • modular/configurability: provide configuration options where the developer can specify which part is needed.

Getting Started

Check out the source code

git clone https://github.com/GepardGraphics/gepard.git

Install any necessary dependencies

./tools/install-deps.sh

Build gepard dynamic library

./tools/build.py

Note: To list all available options, run with the -h flag.

Build & run examples

Build all examples in ./apps/examples

./tools/build.py examples

Run a GLES2 example (now the fill-rect)

./build/gles2/bin/fill-rect

For developers
