Minecraft uses GLFW as underlying windowing library. This mod ports Minecraft to SDL3, to get:
- Better IME (Input Method Editor) support
- Better Wayland support
- More efficient event polling (by eliminating JNI upcall of GLFW)
- More to come...
Mojang already uses SDL3 in 26.3-snapshot 4. So no more new version will be supported in BlazeSDL!
