Building

This project was built using Visual Studio, building with other platforms should not be too different.

Steps for VS:

• clone or download the project
• create a new VS project in the new directory
• go to the project's properties > C/C++ > additional include directories > add $(ProjectDir)Libraries\include
• in the Linker tab > general > additional library directories > add $(ProjectDir)Libraries\lib
• in the Linker tab > input > additional dependencies > add glfw3.lib
• in the General tab, make sure you are using C++20 or latter
