A Rust crate for creating graphic experiences, with a focus on ease of use and beginner friendliness. Also helpful for visualizing algorithms when learning Rust.

This creative coding library draws a lot of inspiration from [p5.js].

Simple Example

This example draws a cube in the center of the window, rotating and coloring it based on the time that has passed.

```rust use duku::Camera; use duku::Duku; use duku::Hsb; use duku::Light; use duku::Result; use std::time::Instant;

fn main() -> Result<()> { // create duku context and window let (mut duku, window) = Duku::windowed(500, 500)?;

// create 3D camera with 90 fov let camera = Camera::perspective(90);

// create directional light let light = Light::directional("#ffffff", [-1.0, -1.0, 1.0]);

// start timer for rotation and color let timer = Instant::now();

// start window loop window.whileopen(move || { // start drawing on window duku.draw(Some(&camera), |t| { // setup scene t.background("#ababab"); t.light(light);

      // get elapsed time since start
      let elapsed = timer.elapsed().as_secs_f32();

      // transform scene
      let angle = elapsed * 45.0;
      t.rotate_x(angle);
      t.rotate_y(angle);
      t.translate_z(2.0);

      // draw cube
      let hue = (elapsed * 60.0) as u16;
      t.tint(Hsb::new(hue, 70, 80));
      t.cube([1.0, 1.0, 1.0]);
  });

});

Ok(()) } ```
