OpenGL Mathematics (GLM) is a header only C++ mathematics library for graphics software based on the OpenGL Shading Language (GLSL) specifications.
GLM provides classes and functions designed and implemented with the same naming conventions and functionalities than GLSL so that anyone who knows GLSL, can use GLM as well in C++.
This project isn't limited to GLSL features. An extension system, based on the GLSL extension conventions, provides extended capabilities: matrix transformations, quaternions, data packing, random numbers, noise, etc...

GLM is written in C++98 but can take advantage of C++11 when supported by the compiler. It is a platform independent library with no dependence and it officially supports the following compilers:
- GCC 4.7 and higher
- Intel C++ Compose XE 2013 and higher
- Clang 3.4 and higher
- Apple Clang 6.0 and higher
- Visual C++ 2013 and higher
- CUDA 9.0 and higher (experimental)
- Any C++11 compiler
