When EGL was released, it was meant to be a solution for all platforms for creating an OpenGL context. But other APIs, like GLX and NSOpenGL, already existed, and therefore the success of EGL was limited. This project aims to provide EGL support for MacOS by translating EGL to NSOpenGL.
All the necessary EGL include files are inside the include directory.

There are a few notable things. First, the argument display_id in function eglGetDisplay must be 0. Currently, it isn't used for anything, but that may change in the future. Second, the type of EGLNativeWindowType is NSWindow*. Pass the NSWindow* you created as a parameter to the eglCreateWindowSurface function.
