How to use

User interface

Tungsten is the test bed for a declarative callback-driven graphical user interface framework for Uxn. This framework keeps track of the UI state and redraws individual components only when necessary, which greatly improves rendering performance and UI responsiveness on slow-rendering devices like the NintendoDS.
