Build

Raylib-cs targets net5.0 and net6.0.

Installation - NuGet

This is the prefered method to get started - The package is still new so please report any issues.

dotnet add package Raylib-cs --version 4.0.0

NuGet

If you need to edit Raylib-cs source then you will need to add the bindings as a project (see below).

Installation - Manual

  1. Download/Clone this repo

  2. Add Raylib-cs/Raylib-cs.csproj to your project as an existing project.

  3. Download the native libraries for the platforms you want to build for using the official 4.0.0 release. NOTE: the MSVC version is required for Windows platforms

  4. (Recommended) Put the native library for each platform under Raylib-cs/runtimes/{platform}/native/ (Optional) If you want to handle the native libraries yourself, make sure they are either in the same directory as the executable and/or can be found in the search path. See https://www.mono-project.com/docs/advanced/pinvoke/ for details.

  5. Start coding!

Hello, World!

using Raylib_cs;

namespace HelloWorld
{
    static class Program
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            Raylib.InitWindow(800, 480, "Hello World");

            while (!Raylib.WindowShouldClose())
            {
                Raylib.BeginDrawing();
                Raylib.ClearBackground(Color.WHITE);

                Raylib.DrawText("Hello, world!", 12, 12, 20, Color.BLACK);

                Raylib.EndDrawing();
            }

            Raylib.CloseWindow();
        }
    }
}
