Lina Engine is a cross-platform, lightweight, straight to the point open-source 3D game engine. I've started making Lina as a research project during my Bachelors, and kept on developing as a personal engine. The reasoning behind Lina is first personal learning, and creating a library of tools for myself like [LinaVG](https://github.com/inanevin/LinaVG), a vector graphics library used in Lina's GUI and editor systems, or like [LinaGX](https://github.com/inanevin/LinaGX), a complete Vulkan, DX12 and Metal graphics backend. Secondly I'm making Lina to create a game engine that is free of today's existing bloat in variety of available game engines. It's designed to make highly customizable, small and performant games.
Lina Engine is still under active development, so any contributions and discussions are welcome!
