egui-baseview

A baseview backend for egui. This also contains an adapter for NIH-plug.

How to use with custom plugin framework

Add the following to your Cargo.toml:

egui-baseview = { git = "https://codeberg.org/BillyDM/egui-baseview", branch = "main }

or if you want to use a specific version of egui:

egui-baseview = { git = "https://codeberg.org/BillyDM/egui-baseview", branch = "egui_32 }

(Example plugin code is still a WIP)

Add the following to your Cargo.toml (in place of nih_plug_vizia):

nih_plug_egui = { git = "https://codeberg.org/BillyDM/egui-baseview", branch = "main }

or if you want to use a specific version of egui:

nih_plug_egui = { git = "https://codeberg.org/BillyDM/egui-baseview", branch = "egui_32 }

See the nih_plug_gain_egui example for how to hook up egui to your plugin.

To build the nih_plug_gain_egui example, run:

cargo xtask bundle nih_plug_gain_egui --release
