Nidium Kitchen Sink

Die Rendering-Engine für moderne mobile Anwendungen

nidium is an ongoing effort for a general purpose rendering engine to create apps and games that run on both desktop and mobile. It also offers a way to create server-side applications through nidium-server which shares all the non graphics related code base.

nidium helps you create graphical software with Javascript. It's not a NodeJS, QT, Chromium, or WebKit derivative. It has been designed from scratch and has a small codebase written in C++.

It leverages the combination of Skia Graphics from Google, and Mozilla's JavaScript Engine (SpiderMonkey) together with many more awesome libraries.

It supports various common and well known APIs such as:

- WebGL

- Canvas 2D Context

- WebSocket (client & server)

- Module loading (require())

And some other non standard:

- UDP/TCP Socket (client & server)

- HTTP (client & server)

- File access

- Threading

- Threaded Audio

- Videos

- Fragment shader on 2D canvas

- Local Key/Value database

It can seamlessly run various JavaScript libraries like Three.JS, PixiJS, Phaser (and probably a lot more without much modification).
