# Little Fingers
A simple Scala 3 Native application that uses Raylib to render a window where letters are animated when pressed.
The purpose of this "game" is to distract my toddler who is adamant he needs to smash random keys. I also learned quite a lot making it.
[Blog post](https://blog.indoorvivants.com/2024-02-05-defeating-toddler-with-raylib) | [Tweet](https://twitter.com/velvetbaldmime/status/1755240417900036162)
## Getting started
To run this, you will need to install [Scala CLI](https://scala-cli.virtuslab.org/).
This project is only tested on Mac OS and Linux.
Instructions and adjustment for Windows are welcome, as long as they're
accompanied by a Github Actions workflow.
The project contains a build script that goes like this (all of this should be transparent to you and will be bootstrap from just having scala-cli):
1. Invoke Scala CLI which
2. invokes [coursier][coursier] CLI which
3. invokes [sn-vcpkg][sn-vcpkg] CLI which
4. installs dependencies by invoking [vcpkg][vcpkg] CLI and then
5. invokes scala-cli with correct compilation and linking flags which
6. produces the binary
Absolutely scrumptious madness.
Run:
```
./build.sc app-debug
./build.sc app-release
```
to build a `little-fingers` binary in debug or release configuration
## Regenerating bindings
To do this, first obtain and setup the bindgen CLI: https://sn-bindgen.indoorvivants.com/quickstart/index.html
```
bindgen --package raylib --header raylib-bindings/raylib-amalgam.h --scala --multi-file --out raylib-bindings/
bindgen --package raylib --header raylib-bindings/raylib-amalgam.h --c --out resources/scala-native/raylib.c --c-import "raylib.h" --c-import "raymath.h"
```
