mcnugets / low-level-gamedev-env

Implementation of low-level set of tools to get started with developing games. The project incorporates tools like SDL2, Vulkan, and Bullet3D

low-level-gamedev-env

Things to fix in my current development project:

• set up the environment so that I have single workspace for local and remote directory
• figure out the devcontainer.json. Make it effective so that I trigger container from the this file
• figure out docker-compose
• maybe automate processes like:
  • docker cli
  • cmake cli

Description

The idea is to develop a dedicated environment to start developing games. Feel free to contribute to the project, fix issues, or develop it further.

Objective and why

I've been using UE5 for a while, and it got me frustrated with how resource-demanding and slow the engine is. Thus development flow gets abruted by continuous compiling time. I wanna build something lightweight and C++-oriented

Hopefully, I won't abandon this project midway through, if I do you can go ahead and contribute to it.

Getting started

to start a docker, you need to run a couple of Python-based commands:

This is the combination of docker build and docker run

    python start.py 1 

This command is used to perform docker remove:

    python start.py 2

This command is a combo of git commands like git add *, git commit, git push origin main:

    python start.py 3

P.S. I would never think building it withing docker container would such a pain in the ass
