Scenic - A Functional UI Framework

There has been some iniital work done to get it working on Windows, but I’ve been swamped and haven’t verified it. Take a look at Windows Support by gVirtu · Pull Request #22 · ScenicFramework/scenic_driver_glfw · GitHub which is most if not all of what you want. Let me know if you can get it to work.

Thanks!

Does Scenic work on Windows?

Install Dependencies — Scenic v0.11.2 tells how to install on different OS, but Windows is not mentioned.

I wanted to try GitHub - Arkham/scenic_escher: An implementation of Escher's Square Limit using Scenic and Elixir · GitHub but couldn’t compile (fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: ‘stdbool.h’: No such file or directory).

Congrats on your work - must say something about the API for people to be able to just pick it up and run with it

Anyone used it on a Pi with an mini touch screen?

Yes the changes to the pipeline are slowing me down a bit. I think. I made the nerves driver public this morning and sent it to Frank and Justin to look at. Go ahead and look at github boydm/scene_driver_nerves_rpi if you want. Sample app at boydm/nerves_scenic_test_app

For now it doesn’t compile. Once we get past that I can get back to the application level bugs.

@boydm Feel free to contact any of us. We are all very excited about Scenic on Nerves. We’ve updated the toolchains pretty recently which may hinder or help compiler issues.

You are right on. Also has issues compiling under C99.

Swap out the stb_truetype.h file with the current in the stb libraries. Everything seems to work just fine now.

Totally something different - but I wonder if you’ve run into funny issues with the NanoVG bundled font library on Nerves. It just crashed on me, apparently with a malloc call that returned NULL. Haven’t tried since then because a switch to freetype worked, but it certainly complicates building

I’m trying to open it up on github soon. However, I’m not going to publish it to hex yet as there are several issues that need to be resolved first. I need the Nerves guys to help with at least one of them.

Not sure I would recommend anyone really try using yet. If you do, you’ll see what I mean…

@boydm - please let everyone know when the Pi + Nerves version is available. If you want an early tester, I’ve got a pretty extensive use case for what I’m building that could hopefully exercise some edge cases for you, and I’d love to potentially contribute some components in a library.

Oh you definitely should have
