sdl2-compat: An SDL2 compatibility layer that uses SDL3 behind the scenes¹

This is the Simple DirectMedia Layer, a general API that provides low level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, 3D hardware via OpenGL, and 2D framebuffer across multiple platforms. This code is a compatibility layer; it provides a binary and source compatible API for programs written against SDL2, but it uses SDL3 behind the scenes. If you are writing new code, please target SDL3 directly and do not use this layer.
