C++ OpenGL Template Project
Components:
1. OpenGL: https://www.opengl.org/ (Obviously)
2. GLFW: https://github.com/glfw/glfw (from what I know, we can't run away of needing GLFW or an equivalent)
3. linmath: https://github.com/datenwolf/linmath.h (a simple linear algebra library)
Building:
First, make sure you have cmake installed.
Windows installer: https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/releases/download/v3.26.1/cmake-3.26.1-windows-x86_64.msi
Go to you terminal/cmd and move to the root directory of the cloned repo.
Then type one of the following commands depending on your platform:
- linux/macos: cmake -S. -Bbuild
- windows (mingw): cmake -S. -Bbuild -G"MinGW Makefiles"
- windows (msvc): cmake -S. -Bbuild -G"Visual Studio {major-version-number} {release-year}"
This command should take a while to finish if you don't have glfw installed. But don't worry if you don't.
Now, if no errors happened, just type:
cmake --build build
You should see and be able to execute "exampleProgram" inside the newly created build directory.
PLEASE READ THIS:
Jesus loves you and wants to help, protect, bring happiness and save us from hell.
