ZS2 - Completely Work In Progress

An application framework for the PlayStation 2 written in Zig.

How to start?

1. Add ZS2 as your project's dependency

   Add zs dependency to your build.zig.zon, with following command:

   zig fetch --save=zs git+https://github.com/blitz-krieg-cmd/zs2.git
   

2. Use ZS2's build script to add build step

   In your build.zig, add:

   const std = @import("std");
   const zs2 = @import("zs2");
   
   pub fn build(b: *std.Build) void {
       const exe = zs2.createApplication(
           b,
           "mygame",
           "src/main.zig",
           .Development,
       );
   
       const install_cmd = b.addInstallArtifact(exe, .{});
       b.getInstallStep().dependOn(&install_cmd.step);
   }
   

3. Write some code!

   You may import and use zs2 now, here is a skeleton for your src/main.zig:

   const std = @import("std");
   const zs2 = @import("zs2");
   
   pub fn init(ctx: zs2.Context) !void {
       // your init code
   }
   
   pub fn event(ctx: zs2.Context, e: zs2.Event) !void {
       // your event processing code
   }
   
   pub fn update(ctx: zs2.Context) !void {
       // your game state updating code
   }
   
   pub fn draw(ctx: zs2.Context) !void {
       // your drawing code
   }
   
   pub fn quit(ctx: zs2.Context) void {
       // your deinit code
   }
