Big thanks to @flohofwoe.bsky.social for sokol_app — made it easy to keep github.com/Geolm/onedraw examples small and clean, no extra dependencies. Super smooth setup. Only thing I couldn’t find was a way to create sRGB backbuffer on macOS (did I miss that in the docs?).

Has sokol been featured anywhere? Somehow the GH stars jumped from 8.9k to 9.1k overnight - I was keeping an eye on it for when it flips to 9.0k and now I missed it dammit :D

Hijong Park's Defender Patrol has been released! This game started as a "I'm going to make an MD500 game because nobody else will," and has evolved into a little battlefield with interactive cockpits and simlite realism. If you have a joystick, the helicopter is really fun to throw around.

A retrospective of my tech career - a work-focused autobiography, basically - feels a bit vain, but I'm hopeful that it is interesting or useful enough to justify that.

PSA: sokol_audio.h now has a backend for the PS Vita 🤪
Normally I wouldn't merge PRs that I cannot test or maintain myself, but in this case I made an exception because it's very little and very straightforward code:

Latest XCode+macOS can no longer debug C/C++ programs, but in turn I got a 'Apple Intelligence' button which I can't disable, yay? (who needs a debugger anyway when AI writes all the code right?)

I'd really like to know how this hot mess of different radiuses (radii?) made it through quality control at Apple... I'm mostly a terminal user but each time I open a Finder window it's an instant 'ew, ugly...'

Started to display the sizes of some common sokol-gfx structs in the sokol-gfx debug UI (just to keep aware of them and avoid accidential regressions).
The size difference between platforms with 64-bit pointers and 32-bit pointers (e.g. WASM) is surprisingly big.

Here's another thing in Tahoe that's very un-Apple-like: there's this icon which is a rectangle with dots besides it and I have no idea what it does. There is no tooltip when hovering over it, the icon is absolutely cryptic, and clicking it doesn't do anything except the icon turns inverted.
