A high-performance, lightweight cross-platform camera capture library with hardware-accelerated pixel format conversion.

🌐 Documentation: ccap.work | Repository: GitHub

✅ Quality Assurance

All packages passed comprehensive tests on Windows, macOS, Linux x86_64, and Linux ARM64 platforms.

🔧 Build Environment & Compatibility

• Linux Builds: Ubuntu 20.04 (GLIBC 2.31), compatible with Ubuntu 20.04+, Debian 11+, Fedora 32+, Arch Linux
• Windows: MSVC 2019+, static runtime (no dependencies)
• macOS: Universal Binary (Intel + Apple Silicon), macOS 10.13+
• Requirements: C++17 compiler for library integration

📦 Available Packages

Libraries (static & shared):

• ccap-macos-universal-{static,shared}.tar.gz - macOS Universal Binary
• ccap-msvc-x86_64-{static,shared}.zip - Windows x64 (Debug + Release)
• ccap-linux-{x86_64,arm64}-{static,shared}.tar.gz - Linux packages

CLI Tools (ready-to-run, all with GLFW preview support):

• ccap-cli-macos-universal.tar.gz - macOS Universal Binary
• ccap-cli-msvc-x86_64.zip - Windows x64
• ccap-cli-linux-{x86_64,arm64}-gnu.tar.gz - Linux glibc (smaller, optimized for modern systems)
• ccap-cli-linux-{x86_64,arm64}-musl.tar.gz - Linux musl (fully static, maximum compatibility)

CLI Features: All CLI packages include --preview for real-time camera preview (requires X11/Wayland on Linux).
musl vs glibc: musl versions (~1.9MB) are larger but work on ANY Linux distribution; glibc versions (~580KB) are smaller but require GLIBC 2.31+.

🚀 Quick Start

Library Integration:

Each package contains headers, libraries, examples, and CMake configs. See BUILD_AND_INSTALL.md for detailed instructions.
