The first release of Diligent Engine is now available! The engine is hosted on GitHub and is free for use in any application.
The engine consists of the following components:
- Engine Core provides basic engine functionality. It implements engine interface on the platform-specific graphics API.
- Shader Converter is designed to convert HLSL source code into GLSL. It allows shaders to be developed in HLSL, yet enables the exact same shaders to be compiled on other platforms.
- Render Script is an efficient tool that provides efficient run-time graphics resource description and facilitates resource management
The engine also contains several sample applications that demonstrate the usage of the engine. You can find API reference here.
