kazmath
This is an embryo of a NativeCall port of the kazmath library.
kazmath is low-level library for manipulation of graphics primitives. It's
similar to others graphics libraries such as OpenGL, but it's simpler and
, in some cases, faster.
Installing
You need to install kazmath from source (URL above), compiling it. Follow the
instructions to create a shared library.
Then you xan install this from this source or via
zef install kazmath
Running
Since only some functions have been ported, basically you can rotate a vector
, like this:
my mat4 $one-mat .= new;
my mat4 $turn-pi = kmMat4RotationY($one-mat, pi/2);
say $turn-pi;
my vec4 $out .= new;
my vec4 $in .= new(1.Num, 0.Num, 0.Num, 1.Num);
my vec4 $result = kmVec4Transform( $out, $in, $turn-pi);
say $result;

Also, this has been built mainly to be used as a recipe in the upcoming Raku
Recipes book by APress. Check out all Raku titles in Apress such as this one.
