OpenGL Cpp Starter

OS	Build Status

This repo provides easy to use starter code for OpenGL C++ projects using modern CMake. The included CMake scripts automatically fetch and link glfw, glad, glm and stb_image. Optionally, you can also fetch and link assimp (see Generating build system). The sample OpenGL code is based on learnopengl.com and currently just opens a blank window.

git clone https://github.com/mfl28/opengl-cpp-starter.git
