How to Install SDL2?

[unborn horizon]

So, I'm really interested in C++, but, the thing is, C++ itself doesn't have built-in tool/utility/library for 2D Graphics, which is kinda disappointing compared to Java, which has its own Library for 2D graphics such as Java Swing.

But, C++ has a library called SDL2, Simple DirectMedia Layer, but, the library itself doesn't available in Termux Packages, so, how do i install it?

It may be in the X11 package repository

Open termux and read what it says there

Huh, I couldn't find sdl.h from Termux, x11 repo nor tur repo.

You can grab the source code from their git with git clone https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL.git and hope that you don't need to patch their build processes or you can see if they give releases which you can grab
