SFML Documentation

# Welcome

Welcome to the official SFML documentation. Here you will find a detailed view of all the SFML classes and functions.
If you are looking for tutorials, you can visit the official website at www.sfml-dev.org.

# Short example

Here is a short example, to show you how simple it is to use SFML:

#include <SFML/Audio.hpp>
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
int main()
{
// Create the main window
sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode({800, 600}), "SFML window");
// Load a sprite to display
const sf::Texture texture("cute_image.jpg");
sf::Sprite sprite(texture);
// Create a graphical text to display
const sf::Font font("arial.ttf");
sf::Text text(font, "Hello SFML", 50);
// Load a music to play
sf::Music music("nice_music.ogg");
// Play the music
music.play();
// Start the game loop
while (window.isOpen())
{
// Process events
while (const std::optional event = window.pollEvent())
{
// Close window: exit
if (event->is<sf::Event::Closed>())
window.close();
}
// Clear screen
window.clear();
// Draw the sprite
window.draw(sprite);
// Draw the string
window.draw(text);
// Update the window
window.display();
}
}
