What programming language would you recommend for making a 2D animation program?
Hi! I'm working on a personal project where I'm making my own 2D animation software.
The idea is to eventually have features such as a drawing canvas, layers, a timeline, brushes, vector and bitmap tools, and animation features. I'd like it to run on Windows, with the possibility of supporting other platforms in the future.
I'm currently trying to decide which programming language and framework would be the best fit for this kind of application.
For people who have experience developing graphics software, animation tools, drawing applications, or similar programs:
What programming language and framework would you recommend, and why?
I'm particularly interested in rendering performance, canvas/drawing capabilities, GPU acceleration, handling larger projects, and keeping the codebase manageable as the software grows.
I'm not looking for someone to develop it for me. I'm mainly looking for advice before I get too far into the project.
Thanks!
