Can Haxe libraries go beyond Haxe code?
© GameDuell 2015
- Libraries do not have a standard way of integrating natively
- Engines are too Monolithic
- Native code is not easily shared between engines
Current library ecosystem
© GameDuell 2015
- Sharing native libraries between engines
- Less work for engine developers
- Simpler and more maintainable engines
Standard native interface
