Originally developed for use in [Metaforce](https://github.com/AxioDL/metaforce), a Metroid Prime reverse engineering
|
||
|
|
project.

### GX
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The GX compatibility layer is built on top of [WebGPU](https://www.w3.org/TR/webgpu/), a cross-platform graphics API
|
||
|
|
abstraction layer. WebGPU allows targeting all major platforms simultaneously with minimal overhead.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Currently, the WebGPU implementation used is Chromium's [Dawn](https://dawn.googlesource.com/dawn/).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See [GX API support](GX.md) for more information.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### PAD
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The PAD compatibility layer utilizes SDL_GameController to automatically support & provide mappings for hundreds of
|
||
|
|
controllers across all platforms.
