Glass

(W.I.P) GUI Library written in pure Crystal

TODO

• Completly change positioning and stretching system. At the moment I'm solely focusing on the minimal window size it seems

Creating a simple Window

in order to create a simple Window one first needs to set up the UI using widgets

In order to do this I will just define a fairly simple function

def new_ui() : Glass::Widget
	img = SF::Image.new(256, 256)
	ui = Glass::AbsolutContainer.new(img)
	ui.background_color = SF::Color.new(64_u8, 64_u8, 64_u8)
	container = Glass::VerticalContainer.new()
	container + Glass::Example.new(128_u8, 64_u8, 32_u8)
	container + Glass::Example.new(32_u8, 128_u8, 64_u8)
	container + Glass::Example.new(64_u8, 32_u8, 128_u8)
	ui + container
	ui
end

Starting the window now is pretty easy!

widget = new_ui

window = Window.new "Glass Window", widget

window.run

the application should end up looking like this

Note: this is heavily W.I.P. and no useful functionality has been exposed yet
