General features include 2D graphics, audio output, and input device handling for keyboards, mice, and joypads. 3D graphics are supported via OpenGL, and extra functionality (such as network support) is available via "add-on" libraries such as SDL-net.
Some platforms supported by SDL 1.2 (such as Mac OS 9) are no longer supported by the v2.0 releases, and the CD audio API present in the v1.2 series has been removed. More information can be found on the SDL wiki.
