Hi guys I have some questions regarding this game engine

[unix21311]

Hi guys, I am new to cocos and the game engine does seem interesting but I have a few questions regarding this game engine:

1. Is this game engine modular, does it have something like ECS or something?
2. Does the C++ code get statically linked or dynamically linked (like what Godot does)?
3. Is the Cocos Creator tool free and open source?
4. Am I able to disclose my game using any license I want?
5. Is there a lot of boilerplate code with C++ code for Cocos
6. Am I able to have whatever splash screen I want for my game?

@unix21311 can you clarify which product you are asking about. The post is tagged Cocos Creator but the ask about c++ makes me also wonder if you are asking about cocos2d-x?

Sorry mate like I have multiple questions in regards to the game engine.

Me asking about C++ is in regards to the underlying engine for both 2D and 3D

In regards to the other question that talks about Cocos Creator if it is open source or not?

[slackmoehrle]

The engine is written in c++, but in terms of programing language developers can use either TypeScript or JavaScript.

Creator is mostly open-source but the Editor itself is not.

Let me have engineering also take a look at your questions.

The native engine rendering is written in C++ code. Creator engine is free and open source in :https://github.com/cocos-creator/engine. You can see user manual in :https://docs.cocos.com/creator/3.3/manual/en/, you will find how to change splash screen.
