Dice GUI

A simple dice rolling GUI app using Clay for layout, Ceramic elements and SDL3 rendering.

Compiling

Either git clone --recursive or remember to git submodule update --init --recursive. Then cmake -S. -Bbuild and cmake --build build. Which compiles bin/dice-gui, which you can run.

Code Standards

• Keep program structure as simple as possible. No class Application or other Java-isms. Prefer namespaces with static lifetime variables.

• Use STL where possible. Don't reinvent the wheel.

• K&R brackets. With notable exceptions(1)

• camelCase for variables, PascalCase for types and functions (that's what SDL and Clay do).

• In class member functions, always use this-> to access member variables.

• const applies to the name to it's left, so it goes after the type, not const int x; but int const x.

• * and & flush with the declaration name. Type const &Function(Type &inRef)

(1) Bracket exceptions:

• using scoped_lock in arbitrary blocks, prefer tailed lisp brackets

struct Data {
    int x{ 0 }, y{ 0 };
};
void MyFunction(Data const &data) { // K&R here
    DoAsynchronousThings();
    { std::scoped_lock lock{ myMutex };
        myVariable++;
    } // not quite lisp, lisp with a tail
    DoMoreAsynchronousThings();
}
