ShiftCalendar

3-Day Shift Calendar with SDL2 in Nim

Building

nimble build or nim c "Build\calendar.nim" both build a calendar binary executable based on the host OS.

nimble install builds a calendar binary executable into ~/.nimble/bin.

Upon building the binary executable, font.ttf and background.jpg is automatically loaded into the executable, enabling the executable to be run in any directory.
