Post-processing temporal-blur video effect. CPU intense, therefore not intended for use with the ScreenRecorder extension or other real-time uses. |
orx-time-operators |
A collection of time-sensitive functions aimed at controlling raw data over-time, such as Envelope and LFO. |
orx-timer |
Simple timer functionality providing repeat, to run code with a given interval and timeOut, to run code once after a given delay. |
orx-triangulation |
Delaunay triangulation and Voronoi diagrams. |
orx-turtle |
Bezier (ShapeContour) backed turtle graphics. |

orx-dnk3 |
A scene graph based 3d renderer with support for Gltf based assets |
orx-expression-evaluator |
Tools to evaluate strings containing mathematical expressions. |
orx-file-watcher |
Monitor files on disk and auto-reload them if they change. |
orx-git-archiver |
An extension that hooks into Program.requestAssets to commit changed code to Git and provide filenames based on the commit hash. |
orx-git-archiver-gradle |
A Gradle plugin that turns a git history and screenshots directory into a markdown file. |
orx-gui |
Automatic UI (sliders, buttons, etc.) generated from annotated classes and properties. Uses orx-panel and orx-parameters. |
orx-keyframer |
Create animated timelines by specifying properties and times in keyframes, then play it back at any speed (even backwards) automatically interpolating properties. Save, load, use mathematical expressions and callbacks. Powerful and highly reusable. |
orx-kinect-v1 |
Support for the Kinect V1 RGB+Depth camera. |
orx-midi |
MIDI support for keyboards and controllers. Send and receive note and control change events. Bind inputs to variables. |
orx-minim |

GIF, H265, PNG, Prores, TIFF and Webp VideoWriterProfiles for ScreenRecorder and VideoWriter. |
Developer notes
Publish and use local builds of the library in your applications
First, build and publish OPENRNDR to the local maven repository:
Run (or import in IntelliJ IDEA and edit the run configuration).
# In openrndr repository
./gradlew publishToMavenLocal snapshotThis command will build and publish a snapshot of the next version of the library. For example, if the current latest release is 0.4.2, then it will create a release named "0.4.3-SNAPSHOT" and publish it to your local maven repository. The exact version will be shown in the console output during the build process.
Now you can run the same command again but for this repository.
# In orx repository
./gradlew publishToMavenLocal snapshotIt will automatically use the locally published snapshot of OPENRNDR for building ORX and will publish ORX to your local maven repository with the same logic as before.
Once that's done, you can use the local build of ORX in your openrndr-template by specifying the version you published. In this case, it would be "0.4.3-SNAPSHOT".
