JAlright, fair enough. Thanks! 
Phello how can I help you
L(if you do test it out and get it to work, please send us a minimal example we would be forever grateful)
PFWIW I got it working on the simulator a while ago
RNothing you can currently do?
Lo sick
Pbut it segfaulted on the real deal

PGitHub
A fork of SDL for compatibility with Xamarin.iOS. Contribute to Ultz/SDL-Xamarin.iOS development by creating an account on GitHub.
JWould it be reasonable to assume iOS and Silk.NET will work someday? Or is it 50/50?
Pyeah it probably will some day, the bulk of the work is done we just need an iOS expert to contribute some time to get it all the way
PSilk.NET - High-Speed & Advanced .NET Graphics & Compute
Li havent seen that image that is amazing
Rlove the retro CGI vibe it gives
RLike we are lighting up an intricate 80's neon sign

That's good to hear!Reason why I'm asking these questions: For my internship at -redacted- I've been tasked to find/setup a decent basis to develop mobile games on, preferably something C# based.
Unity is the clear goto, but it's recent actions have been... concerning. Godot is also one of the contenders, as is Silk.NET, since it has some really great things going for it.
Rdoes stride support IOS?
JSo basically I got 9 months so figure shit out, develop a simple serious mobile game and release it. I think it'd be great if that was using Silk.NET
Lwe're here to answer any questions you may have about Silk and its viability on mobile platforms
R@keyslam "Stride currently supports Windows, Android, iOS, Xbox One and Universal Windows Platforms (UWP). Stride also supports most popular VR headsets and has experimental support for Linux."

Rmight suggest at least looking into this
Lstride may be a good choice too yeah, depends on the level of graphics code you want to write
ATo add one more option, monogame also supports android & ios
PI don’t think the new versions of stride have been proven on android or iOS
PThe Xenko versions should, but it’s using Xamarin
LMonogame is battle tested but has a very outdated API
RThat would be my worry with monogame
RWhat version does it support again?
Aoutdated very much so, especially when it comes to shaders, barely functions
even still, it's another option and many successful games have been released with it
even still, it's another option and many successful games have been released with it
Aopengl 2.1 (up to shader model 3)
d3d11 (up to shader model 5 iirc)
there is ofc the compute fork too but not too many people are aware of that

there is ofc the compute fork too but not too many people are aware of that
Ryeah, I would avoid it then for anything more complex than a simple 2d game :(
Li dont think anyone has tested compute fork on mobile devices
Ayeah
Ai see no reason why it wouldn't work but i don't think it's cpt-max's priority
RNot to mention OpenGL is deprecated on apple platorms
A(it does use opengl es for mobile)
Rso any bugs incurred are unlikely to be fit
Pthat’s a fabrication
Pwhat are you going to use on android
PVulkan? Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Rmeant apple platforms
Pah
Rto which the response apple wants you to give is metal
Rmy bad
PI love metal
PI really wish it wasn’t apple only
Adeprecated yes but so many apps use opengl i don't think they're gonna remove it anytime soon
Lmetal is a really good api from what ive heard, but the only problem is apple only
RI don't want to own apple products, so I don't and have never used it
