Raylib-cs targets netstandard2.1 and supports netcoreapp3.0+ and net5.0.

## Installation - NuGet

This is the prefered method to get started - The package is still new so please report any [issues](https://github.com/ChrisDill/Raylib-cs/issues). 

**NOTE** The nuget package uses raylib 3.0. It will soon be updated to raylib 3.5.0.

```
dotnet add package Raylib-cs --version 3.1.5
```

[![NuGet](https://img.shields.io/nuget/dt/raylib-cs)](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Raylib-cs/)

If you need to edit Raylib-cs source then you will need to add the bindings as a project (see below).

## Installation - Manual

1. Download/Clone this repo

2. Add Raylib-cs/Raylib-cs.csproj to your project as an existing project.

3. Download the native libraries for the platforms you want to build for using the [official 3.5.0 release](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/releases/tag/3.5.0).
   **NOTE: the MSVC version is required for Windows platforms**

4. **(Recommended)** Put the native library for each platform under `Raylib-cs/runtimes/{platform}/native/`
   **(Optional)** If you want to handle the native libraries yourself, make sure they are either in the same directory as the executable and/or can be found in the search path. See https://www.mono-project.com/docs/advanced/pinvoke/ for details.

5. Start coding!

```csharp
using Raylib_cs;

namespace HelloWorld
{
    static class Program
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            Raylib.InitWindow(800, 480, "Hello World");

            while (!Raylib.WindowShouldClose())
            {
                Raylib.BeginDrawing();
                Raylib.ClearBackground(Color.WHITE);

                Raylib.DrawText("Hello, world!", 12, 12, 20, Color.BLACK);

                Raylib.EndDrawing();
            }

            Raylib.CloseWindow();
        }
    }
}
```

## Physac-cs and Raygui-cs

These are unfinished EXPERIMENTAL bindings to physac and raygui. Added as a test to Raylib-cs but caused confusion in project setup so they were moved into their own libraries.

## Examples

The Examples for Raylib-cs were moved and can be found at [Raylib-cs-Examples](https://github.com/ChrisDill/Raylib-cs-Examples).

## Tech notes

- Certain functions take a enum instead of a int such as `IsKeyPressed`.

- Colours moved into the `Color` struct as static members. `RED` changes to `Color.RED`.

- Uses `string.Format` instead of `TextFormat`.

- Adds constructors for some of the structs(WIP).

- Adds operator overloads for math structs.
