Request for a way to get SimpleMath without DirectX Tool Kit #327
SimpleMath is hosted in the toolkit because it is explicitly designed to be like XNA Game Studio framework as the rest of that library is designed.
Since SimpleMath has a cpp file (although small), it would be like the SHMath module it would need a sub cmake.
That said, the library files are MIT and could easily be copied into any project (SimpleMath.h, SimpleMath.inl, and SimpleMath.cpp) are fully standalone although you'd need a pch.h for it to find or to edit the .cpp.
