Description

Maybe this should be called SDL3. Needs investigation.

Milestone: 12.2 → 99-Waiting
Summary: SDL2-3.1.0 → SDL3-3.1.0 (Preview, wait for final release and a package needing it)

It's only a preview as at now.

Per the release note:

This is a preview release of the new SDL 3.0 API.

The ABI hasn't been locked down yet, but it's fairly stable and feedback is welcome!

Check out README-migration.md for details on API changes since SDL 2.0, and tips on transitioning your code from SDL2 code to SDL3.

So SDL2 apps won't automatically work with SDL3.

Summary: SDL3-3.1.0 (Preview, wait for final release and a package needing it) → SDL3-3.1.0 (Preview, wait for final release and (a package needing it or sdl2-compat))

sdl2-compat is under development for supporting SDL2 apps on top of SDL3: ​https://github.com/libsdl-org/sdl2-compat

We can replace SDL2 with it once both SDL3 and sdl2-compat have a stable release, like how we use sdl12-compat for SDL1.
