## README

# OpenGL-Grid

OpenGL-Grid is a repository that aims to act as a beginners guide to creating a *grid* in *OpenGL* using shaders.  
There will be a complete explanation for each part of the code and I will try to make it as easy as possible to follow along.

### Linux

On linux simply use your package manager of choice and install the libraries:

```bash
sudo apt install glfw3 glm
```

<a name="windows"/>

### Windows

On windows I highly recommend using the [Vcpkg](https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg) to easily install  
the dependencies:

``` bash
vcpkg install glfw3 glm
```

and use their toolchain to easily configure cmake:

``` bash
cmake . -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=D:\src\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake
```
You can read more [here](https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/blob/master/docs/examples/installing-and-using-packages.md).

```

2. Generate project using CMake:

```bash
cmake .
```

3. Build using your build system.

## Tutorial

This section will try to explain with relative simplicity how the program works.  
Basic knowledge of OpenGL such as what are VAOs, VBOs and Shaders is expected.  
If you don't possess this knowledge, I recommend the excellent tutorial over at [learnopengl](https://learnopengl.com/).
