I got my first job as a programmer because someone noticed that I’ve been making video games with LÖVE. A similar library would be raylib, that I’ve been using lately. These libraries are simple enough so you can keep everything in your head, and they are powerful enough so you can immediately put stuff on the screen with zero ceremony. This combination makes it extremely productive. It’s the perfect abstraction layer for amateurs and people who are drawn to simplicity.
