baseview

A low-level windowing system geared towards making audio plugin UIs.

baseview abstracts the platform-specific windowing APIs (winapi, cocoa, xcb) into a platform-independent API, but otherwise gets out of your way so you can write plugin UIs.

Interested in learning more about the project? Join us on discord, channel #plugin-gui.

Roadmap

Below is a proposed list of milestones (roughly in-order) and their status. Subject to change at any time.

Feature Windows Mac OS Linux
Spawns a window, no parent ✔️ ✔️ ✔️
Cross-platform API for window spawning ✔️ ✔️ ✔️
Window uses an OpenGL surface ✔️ ✔️
Can find DPI scale factor ✔️ ✔️
Basic event handling (mouse, keyboard) ✔️ ✔️ ✔️
Parent window support ✔️ ✔️ ✔️
Send messages ✔️
(Converge on a common API for all platforms?)
