Linux-SDL2 Driver

This driver supports Linux with SDL2 as a backend.

Building

A toolchain based on fedora:41 is provided with the Containerfile in this directory.

From within the parent directory, run the following commands:

podman-compose up --no-build Linux-SDL2

If you want to build the container yourself:

podman-compose up --build Linux-SDL2

First, install the following tools and dependencies for your distro:

gcc gcc-c++ cmake git SDL2-devel SDL2_mixer-devel SDL2_ttf-devel

Then, run the following commands from the repo root:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DDRIVER_SDL2=TRUE ..
make -j4

You can build the flatpak with the flatpak.sh script in the parent directory. Make sure to run it directly in the driver directory and not here.

cd driver
./flatpak.sh

This driver follows the license scheme of the parent driver at driver/SDL2.
