raylib is highly inspired by Borland BGI graphics lib and by XNA framework. Do you want to see all functions available in raylib? Check raylib cheatsheet. raylib is a programming library to enjoy videogames programming; no fancy interface, no visual helpers, no auto-debugging, just coding in the most pure spartan-programmers way. raylib has received several recognitions in the last years and many people have written about the library. Here there are the main awards received from Google and Epic Games. raylib supports multiple target platforms, it has been tested in the following platforms but, technically, any platform that supports C language and OpenGL graphics is valid for raylib or can be very easily ported to. raylib can be combined with several extra libraries for additional functionality, some of those libraries are already used internally while others are provided for user integration, most of these libraries are single-file header-only with no external dependencies.
