- SDL2
- Bullet
- GLM
- Glew (for core OpenGL profiles)
After aquiring these fine softwares, you can build the engine as a normal CMake-based library. On linux:
git clone --recurse-submodules "https://github.com/grend3d/grend"
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<prefix> # or no prefix for global installation
make && make install
Which you can then link against, see
for an example of how to build against it.
