Just tried Mistral Large 4: Serendipity.
I used this one in 2022 to make a proof of concept for a build once / run anywhere graphical app and IIRC the library was quite nice, even if a bit limited. The resulting kludge is at https://github.com/jacereda/cosmogfx and there's a prebuilt binary that should run on Linux, Windows and some BSDs. https://github.com/jacereda/cosmogfx/releases/download/v0.0....

Cosmopolitan Libc has since integrated the bits to make OpenGL work in cross-platform binaries and it's awesome.

Would be nice to provide some building instructions.

The answer today would probably be to use flakes: https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes

And a couple of wrappers (probably bitrotten) https://github.com/search?q=user%3Ajacereda+glcv

Not so minimal, but if you need GPU rendering I wrote this: https://github.com/jacereda/glcv

Can you imagine a beowulf cluster of these? Oh, wait...
I'm considering a GoodWe inverter supported by HomeAssistant, it would be good to know if those can be functional without internet connectivity. Anyone knows the answer?
Try again, looks like they fixed the page.
On Mac it's a bit less (8k) and size reports:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
    172      24      44     240      f0
I ported X11 server + SSH + FreeNX compression protocol stack to a non-posix cooperatively-threaded OS (BREW). Even worse than that, the toolchain was broken. The generated binaries were corrupted when an identifier bigger than 255 characters was used. Thanks to the wonders of STL and its templates there were several of those. And to make things more interesting there was no debugger, only a broken simulator on top of Windows.

Here is a better translation of the later:

Tried to submit the article, but it seems to have disappeared misteriously.
