Concord is a C++23 real-time 3D engine for Windows. Its public API covers rendering, scenes, input, assets, and runtime services.
Warning
Concord is in early development. APIs, project file formats, and runtime behavior may change without compatibility guarantees, and builds may be unstable.
| Area | Includes |
|---|---|
| Rendering | Forward+ lighting, shadows, reflections, post-processing, clouds, and smoke |
| Runtime | Window management, scenes, input, events, and frame scheduling |
| Content | Mesh import, materials, animation, particles, and scene serialization |
| Tooling | Immediate-mode UI, debugging utilities, and build support |
- Download concord-cli from the Releases page. It is a TUI tool for building and managing Concord engine versions.
- Use concord-cli to download the engine version you need.
- Refer to the documentation shipped with the engine for build and integration details.
