    Core

    • ➕ Added LanguageManager::getLanguages
    • 🛠 Fix lost key focus event not being triggered sometimes

    • 🛠 Other InputManager events fixes.
    • 🍎 Minor MacOS build fixes.
    • 🐎 Cleaner and much faster logic for adding and removing render items (it was the performance bottleneck when working with many items on screen).
