shaderc.zig

This is a fork of google/shaderc packaged for Zig

Why this fork ?

The intention under this fork is to package google/shaderc for Zig. So:

• Unnecessary files have been deleted,
• The build system has been replaced with build.zig,
• A cron runs every day to check google/shaderc. Then it updates this repository if a new release is available.

How to use it

The goal of this repository is not to provide a Zig binding for google/shaderc. There are at least as many legit ways as possible to make a binding as there are active accounts on Github. So you are not going to find an answer for this question here. The point of this repository is to abstract the google/shaderc compilation process with Zig (which is not new comers friendly and not easy to maintain) to let you focus on your application. So you can use shaderc.zig:

• as raw (no available example, open an issue if you are interested in, we will be happy to help you),
• as a daily updated interface for your Zig binding of google/shaderc (see here for a private usage).

Dependencies

The Zig part of this package is relying on the latest Zig release (0.12.0) and will only be updated for the next one (so for the 0.13.0).
