sdlada
Ada 2022 bindings to SDL 2, providing a variable-thickness wrapper for multimedia and game development.
What is sdlada?
SDLAda is a comprehensive Ada 2012/2022 binding to the SDL 2 library, enabling Ada developers to create multimedia applications and games. It provides a variable-thickness wrapper, offering a more Ada-idiomatic interface where beneficial while keeping thin, direct bindings to C functions for performance-critical or simple mappings. The binding specifically omits SDL features that Ada already handles natively, such as threading, which is covered by Ada's built-in tasking support.
Ada developers who need to create cross-platform multimedia applications, games, or graphical user interfaces. It is particularly suited for programmers in embedded, safety-critical, or high-integrity domains who want to leverage SDL's capabilities while writing in Ada.
Developers choose SDLAda because it provides a clean, efficient, and idiomatic Ada interface to SDL, reducing the need for low-level C interop code. Its variable-thickness binding philosophy offers the best of both worlds: Ada-friendly abstractions for complex operations and thin, performant bindings for simple C mappings, all while maintaining broad platform support.
