dlangUI
=======
GUI for D programming language, written in D.
* Crossplatform (Win32 and Linux are supported in current version)
* Mostly inspired by Android UI API
* Hardware acceleration using OpenGL (when built with USE_OPENGL)
* Fallback to Win32 API / XCB when OpenGL is not available
Win32 builds
============
Under windows, uses Win32 API as backend.
Optionally, may use OpenGL acceleration via DerelictGL3/WGL.
Uses Win32 API for font rendering.
Optinally can use FreeType for font rendering.
Linux builds
============
Uses XCB (X C binding) as backend.
Uses shared memory images for faster drawing.
Uses FreeType for font rendering.
TODO: Use FontConfig to get font list.
TODO: OpenGL initializes ok, but images not visible on screen. Disabled temporary.
Third party components used:
* DerelictGL3 - for OpenGL support
* DerelictFT - FreeType library support under linux and optionally under Windows.
* DerelictFI - FreeImage library support for decoding of images
