# DirectX 12 Seed
[![cmake-img]][cmake-url]
[![License][license-img]][license-url]
A DirectX 12 repo you can use to get started with your own renderer.
## Setup
First install:
- [Git](https://git-scm.com/)
- [CMake](https://cmake.org)
- [Visual Studio](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/)
Then type the following in your [terminal](https://hyper.is/).
```bash
# 🐑 Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/alaingalvan/directx12-seed --recurse-submodules
# 💿 go inside the folder
cd directx12-seed
# 👯 If you forget to `recurse-submodules` you can always run:
git submodule update --init
# 👷 Make a build folder
mkdir build
cd build
# 🖼️ To build your Visual Studio solution on Windows x64
cmake .. -A x64
# 🔨 Build project
cmake --build .
```
> Refer to [this blog post on designing C++ libraries and apps](https://alain.xyz/blog/designing-a-cpp-library) for more details on CMake, Git Submodules, etc.
## Project Layout
As your project becomes more complex, you'll want to separate files and organize your application to something more akin to a game or renderer, check out this post on [game engine architecture](https://alain.xyz/blog/game-engine-architecture) and this one on [real time renderer architecture](https://alain.xyz/blog/realtime-renderer-architectures) for more details.
