Why is this on Patreon?
downvoting because there's no indication as to exactly what this is and how it fits into the technology community.
Edit: Some sort of game engine?
- SDL3 is a set of C libraries for doing cross platform gamedev stuff. It abstract over platform APIs for things like window creation/management, input handling, audio etc.
  
  So kind of like proton, except for multiple platforms and in the source code instead?
- Wow
It's been production-ready for a while, Valve is known to use it for long time. Official release is more for API and ABI stability so you don't have to change anything to upgrade.
