About


This site is a searchable directory of extensions or "blocks" for the Cinder creative coding framework.

The site automatically updates every hour via a script that does the following:

  1. Queries Github for a list of repositories that have the keyword "cinder" in either their name, description or readme file and are written in C, C++, Objective-C or Objective-C++.
  2. Inspects every repository in that list for the presence of a cinderblock.xml file which is what officially qualifies it as an extension.

The filtered list of "blocks" are displayed sorted by popularity (based on number of stars) and when they were last updated.

Contributors are listed in descending order by the total number of stars across all of their blocks.

If your project meets the above criteria and you don't see it on this site you can let me know by posting a message on this forum thread.
