Copy this template to start a raylib project

RAYLIB ON MAC:

• Follow instructions from this YouTube video for installation

• Copy the libraylib.a file from src into your PROJECT DIRECTORY in a folder called ‘lib’.

• Copy files ‘raylib.h’, ‘raymath.h’, ‘rlgl.h’ into your PROJECT DIRECTORY in a folder called ‘include’.

• For compilation, the command is: clang++ *.cpp -L lib/ -framework CoreVideo -framework IOKit -framework Cocoa -framework GLUT -framework OpenGL lib/libraylib.a -o yourbinaryname

• Explanation:

  • clang++ = calling the compiler.
  • *.cpp = telling it to compile all .cpp files in the directory.
  • -L lib/ = finding the lib folder in this directory to find raylib.
  • -framework (CoreVideo, IOKit, Cocoa, GLUT, OpenGL) = Apple system frameworks that raylib depends on.
  • lib/libraylib.a = precompiled raylib binary file for running raylib
  • -o yourbinaryname = creates the binary file with the name you give it
