ShadowDusk.Core

A supporting package for ShadowDusk. You normally don't install it directly. To compile shaders, install one of ShadowDusk.Compiler (in-process library), ShadowDusk.Cli (dotnet tool), or ShadowDusk.Wasm (in-browser) instead — each pulls this package in automatically.

It holds the core types and contracts shared across the compiler: IShaderCompiler, CompilerOptions / PlatformTarget (plus the EffectContainer selector and MgfxVersion), the CapabilityProfile output-target selector and the RuntimeProfileDetector helper, the Result<T, TError> / ShaderError diagnostics model, the binary writers (MGFX v10/v11, KNIFX v11, and fx_2_0), and pure-managed SPIR-V/DXBC reflection.

Package Downloads
ShadowDusk.GLSL

ShadowDusk GLSL back-end: SPIR-V to GLSL transpilation via SPIRV-Cross and the MonoGame/MojoShader GLSL dialect rewriter. Part of the ShadowDusk.Compiler cross-platform MonoGame/KNI shader compiler.
ShadowDusk.HLSL

ShadowDusk HLSL front-end: FX9 pre-parse, preprocessor, DXC integration (HLSL to SPIR-V/DXIL via Vortice.Dxc), and the vkd3d-shader DXBC backend (HLSL to SM1–5 D3D bytecode for the DirectX and FNA targets; bundles the vkd3d 1.17 natives for win-x64/linux-x64/osx-x64/osx-arm64). Part of the ShadowDusk.Compiler cross-platform MonoGame/KNI/FNA shader compiler.
ShadowDusk.Compiler

Cross-platform, self-contained HLSL Effect compiler for MonoGame, KNI, and FNA. Compiles .fx shaders to .mgfx binaries (MonoGame/KNI) or D3D9 fx_2_0 .fxb binaries (FNA) in memory at runtime — on Linux, macOS, or Windows — with no Wine, Windows SDK, fxc.exe, or mgfxc required. Add the package and call EffectCompiler.CompileAsync; feed the bytes to new Effect(gd, bytes). Pulls the ShadowDusk.* set and the native DXC + SPIRV-Cross + vkd3d-shader binaries transitively.
