An user friendly GUI library for C++ made for quick and easy GUI application prototyping.

• Immediate mode rendering.
• Window management and GUI controls (e.g. buttons, menus, tabs).
• Custom graphics.
• Video rendering.

In order to create an application window, simply include uxx.hpp and create your application runner:

#include <uxx/uxx.h>

int main() {
    uxx::app app;
    return app.run("My App", [](uxx::screen& screen) {
        // Now you got a screen to work with...
    });
}

The app.run() method is your application rendering loop that will be called until the user close the application. You can use the screen object to render windows:

screen.window("My window", [](uxx::pane& my_window) {
    if (my_window.button("Press me")) {
        std::puts("Hello, world!");
    }
});

Even rendering video is made easy:

screen.window("Video player", [](uxx::pane& my_window) {
    static uxx::video video;

    if (not video.is_loaded()) {
        try {
            video.load_from_disk("/path/to/video.mp4");
            video.play();
        } catch (const std::exception& ex) {
            std::puts(ex.what());
        }
    }
    my_window.draw_video(video);
});

The below screenshot is rendered by the uxx_graphics_demo target provided by the project (see under examples/).

OS	Build tool	Compilers	Status
Linux	cmake >= 3.15	g++ >= 10.1 clang++ >= 10.0
Windows	cmake >= 3.15	msvc >= 19.26

• OpenGL
• SFML >= 2.5.1
• LibVLC >= 3.0

NOTE For Windows the SFML and LibVLC libraries are automatically downloaded by cmake.

$ cd uxx/
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ cmake --build .

The following flags are optional with the cmake command.

• -DDISABLE_EXAMPLES - Don't build examples.
• -DDISABLE_TESTS - Don't build unit tests.

Unstable API that will change. In general a lot of features implemented and working, but API interface is un-finished, and features are missing.
