Question 1

How to set up Cute Framework on Windows?

Accepted Answer

Follow the CMake-based build process outlined in the README, which recommends using Visual Studio or MinGW, and use the provided project template for easier configuration. Detailed steps include installing CMake, git, and configuring the CMakeLists.txt file.

Question 2

Cute Framework vs Raylib for 2D games?

Accepted Answer

Cute Framework focuses on a minimal, portable foundation with C++ in mind, while Raylib offers more built-in features like raylib.h for graphics and input. CF is better for custom, lightweight projects, whereas Raylib might be quicker for prototyping with its richer API.

Question 3

Does Cute Framework have built-in physics?

Accepted Answer

No, it does not include a physics engine; it's a foundational layer, so you'll need to implement or integrate physics libraries yourself, as seen in the samples that demonstrate basic game logic without advanced features.

Question 4

How to deploy a Cute Framework game to web browsers?

Accepted Answer

CF supports web deployment through Emscripten or similar tools, as mentioned in the cross-platform support, but you'll need to handle the compilation and hosting specifics, which may require additional setup beyond the core framework.

Question 5

Can I use modern C++ features with Cute Framework?

Accepted Answer

Yes, since it's written in C/C++, you can leverage modern C++ standards, but check the documentation for compatibility, as the framework itself might use a subset to maintain portability across platforms.

Question 6

Is there support for mobile touch input in Cute Framework?

Accepted Answer

The framework provides input handling APIs, but for mobile-specific features like touch, you may need to extend or adapt the base input systems, as it aims for a general-purpose approach without platform-specific abstractions.
