Having battled many hours with getting SFML 2.0 to work properly, in time for the upcoming Ludum Dare #26, for OS X, Linux and Windows (cross-compiling from Linux using MinGW) alike, with Xcode and Code::Blocks, I decided to share my acquired wisdom with the world. This is by no means a step by step tutorial on how to set it all up, but a testimony of the problems I faced trying to set this up and how I solved them, in case anybody else wants a similar setup and is bumping into similar problems. That poor soul shouldn't have to waste all those hours that I lost.

I now also posted a short code example of a rectangle collision system I did with SFML 2.0.

And now I posted about my free, simple, little 2D platformer engine not only for these three operating systems using C++ with SFML 2.0, but also JavaScript with HTML5 Canvas!

I have previously made a TIG thread for the C++ version:
