A complete header translation (binding) of the raylib 5.0 to Pascal. Without any funky helper functions for memory alignment issues. Inspired and partially based on the drezgames/raylib-pascal binding, however a little cleaner and more recent, with FPC 3.2.0 and up support.

README

        **Ray4Laz is a header translation of the [Raylib Game Development Library](https://www.raylib.com/) for the [Lazarus project](https://www.lazarus-ide.org/).**

---



[raylib](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib) is a simple and easy-to-use library to enjoy videogames programming.

raylib is highly inspired by Borland BGI graphics lib and by XNA framework and it's specially well suited for prototyping, tooling, graphical applications, embedded systems and education.




 *NOTE for ADVENTURERS: raylib is a programming library to enjoy videogames programming; no fancy interface, no visual helpers, no auto-debugging... just coding in the most pure spartan-programmers way.*
