Window Management Library

WINX is a simple to use, minimal, cross-platform and single-header window management C library designed to easily create an OpenGL 3.0+ compatible window on both Windows and Linux (as well as on MacOS through X11).

Usage

To use WINX compile the single source file winx.c with the -lGL -lX11 -lXcursor options on Linux and -lopengl32 -lgdi32 on Windows, after that include the winx.h header anywhere you need access to WINX functions, and link the object files. For small single-file programs you can also directly include the winx.c source file - but note that this is not recommended as it sometimes causes issues with other libraries such as GLAD if done incorrectly.

Example

To see WINX in action run the build.sh (or ./build.bat on Windows) script to compile and execute a simple OpenGL program using a WINX created context and window.

Docs

Documentation describing the basics of using WINX can be found at the beginning of the winx.h header file, just under the license.
