Kerlib

Kerlib is a lightweight and modern Win32 windowing library for C# applications, inspired by the design principles of Avalonia.
It provides a minimal but powerful abstraction over the Win32 API to create windows, manage message loops, and draw custom graphics with a clean and extensible API.


Features

  • Direct Win32 API integration with minimal overhead
  • Custom drawable stack for flexible rendering (lines, rectangles, shapes, and more)
  • Simple event system for window events like resize, close, and user interactions
  • Low garbage collection pressure and high performance
  • Designed with extensibility and clarity in mind

Installation

Clone this repository and include the Kerlib project in your solution.
No external dependencies required, runs on .NET 8.0+.


Usage Example

using Kerlib.Core;

namespace Kerlib;

public static class Program
{
    private static void Main()
    {
        var window = new MainWindow();
        WindowManager.RegisterWindow(window);
        WindowManager.Run();
    }
}
using Kerlib.Drawing;
using Kerlib.Native;

namespace Kerlib;

public class MainWindow : Core.Window
{
    public MainWindow() : base("MainWindow", 800, 600)
    {
        var input = new InputField(new Point(50, 50), 200, 30);
        
        input.TextChanged += (_, _) =>
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Text geändert: " + input.Text);
        };

        
        Add(input);
    }
}
