B.Widgets 1.0.0 first official release: github.com/sjaehn/BWidgets

#BWidgets is a #FOSS #UI toolkit made for #audio and #musicproduction software. Lots of widgets like knobs/dials, scales/sliders, switches, pads, and meters are already implemented.

This toolkit is already used by B.Amp, B.Angr, and B.Choppr. All other B.Music plugins will now be adapted to the new B.Widgets.

@sjaehn Is that drawn using cairo? if so we should integrate it in github.com/DISTRHO/DPF-Widgets sometime 💃

@falktx

Sounds interesting. And yes, it uses Cairo. And pugl. An (optional) implementation of NanoVG or something else may follow in a later version. There's a roadmap at the bottom of the README.md.

@falktx

I already took a look into DPF-widgets. And the rules. Point 13 will be a problem (liberal licenses). You know, I'm not that liberal about licenses. B.Widgets is GPL3+. I know that this is a relevant limitation. Especially for a lib.

@sjaehn understandable, different goals then.
my point with DPF is to have an alternative to other frameworks and also works for me, for releasing not just opensource things but allow commercial plugins with it (there could be some funding for DPF from there someday).

Nothing against GPL, you know I use it often in other projects, but it is really not the goal here.
