What is Agar?

Agar is a versatile and platform-independent toolkit designed for building graphical applications. Implemented in C, C++, and Ada, with bindings to other languages in development, Agar offers a flexible approach to GUI design. Instead of the application being tailored to the toolkit, Agar allows the GUI to be built around the application's core functionality. This approach prioritizes the application's needs over the constraints of the toolkit. Agar leverages hardware graphics acceleration through OpenGL when available, ensuring optimal performance. Additionally, it supports traditional framebuffer interfaces like SDL direct video, making it a comprehensive solution for a wide range of graphical application requirements
