Overview

shgui is a very simple and lightweight ui system for Vulkan applications written completely in C.

It is designed to facilitate the creation and management of basic graphical user interface elements in applications. It offers a straightforward set of functions and structures to simplify GUI development within Vulkan-based projects.

Available widgets

Developers can use the shgui library to quickly incorporate basic gui elements, such as text rendering, into their c-based applications. It simplifies the process of displaying windows, characters and text on graphical surfaces, making it ideal for projects requiring simple user interface components without complex dependencies.

Widget	Rendering	"Features"
`region`	Batch	Fill color, edge color, absolute (pixel) position and relative position
`text`	Batch	Pixel rendering, fill color, font included in header, absolute position
