UntitledImGuiFramework 0.5.0.0: Part 2

The framework is still not done for release 0.5. Currently, the following features need to be finished:

• Reworked build system
  • Adding install statements to cmake
  • Creating the multiple library layouts system
  • Multiplatform build
  • Static builds
  • Vendored builds
• Production export system
• Renaming of locale module to i18n module
• Creating a custom i18n library
• C API for 0.5.0.0
• Finishing the UntitledTemplatingEngine
• Rewriting the UVKBuildTool to use the templating engine

We estimate 0.5.0.0 that would be released around the end of July. The most meaningful features, such as the reworked build and export system will be released by the end of June.

Multilingual

The current tasks for the multilingual project are as follows:

• Cooperation with the i18n subproject on the custom i18n library for the framework
• Creating a static site component based system for Youyin using the templating engine
• Figuring out how to add more character data to Youyin
• Auto-genning the Adobe SourcePro and Google Noto fonts in Funtoo linux, FL-10383
• Rework the MadLadSquad website

New MadLadSquad website

The current website is hard to navigate efficiently, which is why we decided to create a better redesign for it. This is what it looks like right now:

Additional scripts to Youyin

We're currently working on adding additional writing systems to Youyin, with the first ones being the following:

1. BoPoMoFo/Zhuyin
2. Latin
3. Cyrillic

Progress on this front is currently slow, as it requires a lot of manual work to modify the SVGs in a proper way. Expect Zhuyin added to the database around the end of July.
