Brillo

Brillo hides the pain of drawing simple vector graphics and raster images behind a nice data type and a few display functions.

Example

Getting something on the screen is as easy as:

import Brillo

main = display
  (InWindow "Nice Window" (200, 200) (10, 10))
  white
  (Circle 80)

Explore and run the example projects with stack:

stack run brillo-boids

Usage

Once the window is open you can use the following:

• Quit
  • esc-key
• Move Viewport
  • arrow keys
  • left-click drag
• Zoom Viewport
  • page up/down-keys
  • control-left-click drag
  • right-click drag
  • mouse wheel
• Rotate Viewport
  • home/end-keys
  • alt-left-click drag
• Reset Viewport
  • 'r'-key

More

• Animations and simulations can be constructed similarly using the animate and simulate functions
• Games with user input can be constructed with the play function.
• See the brillo-examples directory for more.
