There are two kinds of fast in programming: Fast to code and fast to run. 3D applications and games are known to be speedy. But the time it takes to write and understand the code behind it? Not so much. On the flipside, many abstraction layers designed to make coding easier usually aren’t very efficient. So where’s the median?
Meet Pyglet for Python. Pyglet, as described by their website is “a cross-platform windowing and multimedia library for Python.” While it is certainly that, there is so much more that Pyglet does. The key focus of Pyglet? OpenGL.
With many windowing libraries, just opening a window is complex, let alone one using OpenGL. With Pyglet, it is just one line:
