# Neon - A _C++20_ graphics engine

![Image JAMS](https://i.imgur.com/KfW2WhA.png)

_Neon_ is a _C++20_ multiplatform graphics engine

easy to integrate in graphic applications.

_Neon_ takes advantage of several C++20 features, such as concepts,

advanced template specifications or new std features.

_Neon_ also uses its own mathematics library: 

[Rush](https://github.com/gaeqs/Rush).

To manage complex scenes, _Neon_ implements an advanced scene hierarchy

with a fast component system that encourages spatial locality and

instancing rendering. _Neon_ also supports advance rendering techniques,

such as mesh shaders.

## How to start

To start using Neon, you can explore the

[examples](https://github.com/gaeqs/Neon?tab=readme-ov-file) provided

by the project. Currently, the project contains the following examples:

- test1: basic instancing rendering. Basic usage of models and textures.

  Deferred shading. Models are load asynchronously.

- testPBR: basic PBR rendering. Supports bloom and SSAO.

- testCloth: cloth simulation using Eigen.

- testLine: basic line rendering, using Bezier curves.

- testOctree: octree rendering and usage.

- testAsyncUpdate: test1 fork that uses the task engine to update models

  asynchronously.

- testGeometryShader: basic geometry shader that renders a lot of spheres.

- testMeshShader: basic mesh shader that implements an instancing algorithm

  for models.

To enable examples, you must set to true CMake parameter _NEON_TESTS_.
