-[raylib-cpp](https://github.com/robloach/raylib-cpp) is a C++ wrapper library for [raylib](https://www.raylib.com), a simple and easy-to-use library to enjoy videogames programming. This C++ header provides object-oriented wrappers around *raylib*'s struct interfaces. *raylib-cpp* is not required to use *raylib* in C++, but the classes do bring using the raylib API more inline with C++'s language pardigm.

 ### Object Destructors
 
-Objects will attempt to unload their respective raylib resources on destruction. This means no need to call Unload or Close methods. This applies to the window, textures, images, sounds, etc.

 ### String Functions
 
-Many of the raylib functions have `std::string`-related overrides to allow calling them directly with `std::string`s to save having to use the `.c_str()` method.

 ### Exceptions
 
-When loading an asset fails, raylib will log a warning, but provide no other feedback for you to act upon. raylib-cpp will throw a [`RaylibException`](include/RaylibException.hpp) [runtime exception](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/error/runtime_error), allowing to provide a safe method to catch failed loads.
