Why

I'm developing a (new) SDL extension for php in order to:

  • learn how to write a php extension
  • make tools that facilitate this type of development target

Reference projects are:

There are implemented not only SDL functions but also SDL_image (for image loading to surfaces), SDL_TTF (for using TTF fonts) and SDL_Gfx.

Probably in the future, i'll implement OpenGL and Cairo calls.
