Optimizations and improvements
We've been working hard on optimizations for all platforms and improvements of many small parts of the library.
We have been very busy optimizing libnui lately and our effort has been very well rewarded as the current SVN head is much faster at rendering most applications than the previous version. The change is particularly important on MacOSX and iPhone but Windows and Linux should see some good improvements in frame rate.
We have also been fixing many small quirks on all platforms, polished the animation engine with new easing methods, multithreaded the HTML widget, added new CSS constructs to handle parameters during widget creation, etc.
Here are some of the things we are working on at the moment:
- more nuiHTMLView improvements.
- a video API
- Ogre3D integration
- scripting (V8 has been started, SpiderMonkey is investigated and hopefully once we have a basic construct more langages can be added easily!)
- more performance related fixes.
- VST/AU plugin sample code.
- more CSS niceties (the goal is direct events binding and animations in the CSS without typing one line of C++ code...)
If you haven't updated your repository in a while, now would a good time to do so. Don't forget to let us know what you think in the comments and in the forum!
