p5.cpp Starter Project

This project serves as a starter template for using the p5.cpp library to create simple graphical sketches in C++.

Introduction

p5.cpp is a C++ library inspired by the p5.js JavaScript library. It provides a simple and intuitive way to create interactive graphics and animations in C++.

Installation

To use this project, you need to have the following dependencies installed:

• SFML library
• p5.cpp library

SFML Library

First, you need to install the SFML library. You can do this by following the installation instructions on the SFML website: SFML Installation Guide.

p5.cpp Library

After installing SFML, you can install the p5.cpp library:

Manual Installation

You can manually clone the p5.cpp library from the GitHub repository:

git clone https://github.com/ArshiaZr/p5.cpp.git

Automated Installation

Alternatively, you can use the provided build_p5.sh script to automate the installation process. First, make sure the script is executable:

chmod +x build_p5.sh

Then, run the script:

./build_p5.sh

This script will clone the p5.cpp repository, build the package, and copy the necessary files to your project directory.

Building and Running the Project

Once you have installed the SFML and p5.cpp libraries and made a Makefile, you can build and run the project:

make
./build/app_name

Replace app_name with the name of your executable.
