Taiwins widget library

An embeded GUI library for creating wayland widgets with nuklear imgui. The library is released under a permissive license, but it has dependencies for twclient which you can either build yourself or getting it alongside taiwins installation.

how to use this library

• initializing wayland client with a few lines:

	struct wl_display *wl_display = wl_display_connect(NULL);
	tw_globals_init(&tw_globals, wl_display);
	
	struct wl_registry *registry = wl_display_get_registry(wl_display);
	wl_registry_add_listener(registry, &registry_listener, NULL);
	
	wl_display_dispatch(wl_display);
	wl_display_roundtrip(wl_display);

• now grabs a surface and hook it up with a nuklear backend.

	struct nk_wl_backend *nk_backend = nk_egl_create_backend(wl_display);
	struct wl_surface *wl_surface = wl_compositor_create_surface(tw_globals.compositor);
	struct wl_shell_surface *shell_surface = wl_shell_get_shell_surface(App.shell, wl_surface);
	tw_appsurf_init_default(&app_surface, wl_surface, &tw_globals);
	//deal with wl_shell_surface protocols.
	nk_wl_impl_wl_shell_surface(&app_surface, shell_surface);
	//hook it up with a nuklear backend
	nk_egl_impl_app_surface(&app_surface, nk_bkend, sample_widget, make_bbox_origin(200, 400, 1));

• now you can run your application

	tw_appsurf_frame(&app_surface, false);
	wl_globals_dispatch_event_queue(&tw_globals);

• when you are done, release the resources.

	wl_shell_surface_destroy(shell_surface);
	tw_appsurf_release(&app_surface);
	nk_egl_destroy_backend(nk_bkend);
	wl_globals_release(&tw_globals);
	wl_registry_destroy(registry);
	wl_display_disconnect(wl_display);
