Learning OpenGL

This is where I experiment with OpenGL as I follow along the tutorials at LearnOpenGL.

How to Build

Requirements

• git, cmake, vcpkg
• Windows: Visual Studio
• Linux: ninja (or make), gcc, g++

Instructions

• Set up vcpkg (follow steps 1..2 here)

• Clone this repository

git clone https://github.com/msagca/learning-opengl

cd learning-opengl

• Run the configure command

cmake .

If CMake uses Visual Studio as the generator (default on Windows) but you use a different code editor (e.g., Neovim), header files installed via vcpkg might not be found by the language server (e.g., clangd). To fix this, you have to specify Ninja or Unix Makefiles as the generator so that the required compile_commands.json file is created.

cmake -G "Ninja" .

• Run the build command

cmake --build .
