Chauder

[ʃo] Chaud (french, adjective) : high in temperature.

Chauder is a library allowing hot-reloading of OpenGL shaders with minimal impact on user source code.

This allows user to write OpenGL shaders with live feedback either directly on their application or on a simpler debugging program (as shown in the examples/).

It is currently in its alpha stage, modification of its interface are to be expected.

Dependencies

• CMake
• glfw
• glad (included)
• a C compiler

Only tested on linux.

Compilation

This project uses CMake as its build system. Simply run the following to compile the library as well as the examples :

cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
make

And then try executing one of the examples :

./example/geometry_shader

You should try to modify the corresponding shaders (colors, position ...) with the OpenGL window open to see the rendering change live.
