This template provides a base structure to start developing a small raylib game in plain C

This is more of making this a bit easier to work with and that is having the makefile at the top level of the project folder. Also would like to see the resource folder at the top level to not clutter up the src folder.

I notice that there is no constraint on line width and even in markdown, lines can be very wide, although GitHub Markdown treats simple line breaks as just white space.

I like to have my code and other text formats confined to a line width that I can print and also view easily in any editor. I even set VS Code to break on a right margin and I clean them up usually. The only exception I can think of is URLs and Markdown links. I am known to put a ruler line at the top of a text file just for this purpose.

Put differently, if I continued to do that (my width magic number is 72) would it still be compatible with the raylib convention? I.e., in a pull request?

While the template is valid C code, it does not work well when converted to C++. Some users would like to use the template as the starting point for C++ code.

This PR makes a few small changes to the C code to make it also compatible with C++.

1. use the scene enums everywhere, not a mix of enums and numbers (also makes the code read better)
2. don't pass the address of unnamed temp variables into functions, allocate an actual structure.

These changes allow the c files to be simply renamed C++ and compile without issues.

The project in the template has the compiler setting to force all files to compile as C, even if they are C++. This does not allow a user to extend this template into C++ if they desire.

This PR restores this setting to the default, allowing files to be compiled based on the file type, allowing both C and C++ code.

The typedef cases seem to be for title case. It is not shown, although an already-defined type is used in an example.

I am unclear about the situation with all caps types that also happens in raylib.

The trick around using struct declarator names as defined types is also worthy of note. A mindmeld of the C Language type form :).

E.g.,

typedef struct Texture { ... } Texture

static CoreData CORE = { 0 )

All I did was change the compiler from gcc to g++ and change the flag -std=c99 to -std=c++17

After brew install emscripten, brew install raylib, cloning this repo and running PLATFORM=PLATFORM_WEB make from the src/ dir gives this output:
