OpenGLLab1

Overview

This project serves as a basic template for an OpenGL application. It utilizes GLEW (The OpenGL Extension Wrangler Library) and GLFW (a multi-platform library for OpenGL, OpenGL ES, and Vulkan development) to simplify OpenGL initialization and window management.

Getting Started

To use this solution, follow these steps:

1. Add NuGet Packages

• GLEW: GLEW is a cross-platform open-source C/C++ extension loading library. It provides efficient run-time mechanisms for determining which OpenGL extensions are supported on the target platform.

• GLFW: GLFW is a lightweight and multi-platform library for handling windows, contexts, and input. It is particularly useful for creating and managing OpenGL contexts.

2. Link Dependencies

Follow these steps to link the necessary dependencies:

• Navigate to Project -> Properties -> Linker -> Input -> Additional Dependencies.
• Click Edit and add opengl32.lib to the list.

Building and Running

After adding the required NuGet packages and linking dependencies, build and run the project. Ensure that the necessary OpenGL runtime files are available on your system.
