Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

STB: Single-file public domain libraries for C/C++
there's glad (https://github.com/Dav1dde/glad) which you can use as a single .c file + .h header that defines OpenGL stuff or a single header-only file. I use it on all of my OpenGL projects!

How do I enable anisotropic filtering with GLAD?
If you run into a similar issue with another extension, you need to manually add extensions when generating the GLAD loader.

Exploring Computer Graphics: Weekly Chronicle #1
GLEW/GLAD: Libraries that manage and give access to OpenGL functions and extensions. The difference is that GLAD allows for greater flexibility & customization for more recent versions of OpenGL. However, the Udemy course that I'm following uses GLEW and at least at this point, I prefer to follow along with the tools that each resource recommends.

Implications of running OpenGL inside a VM(parallels) on a Mac
I downloaded glad from this website : http://glad.dav1d.de/ I was also referring to this tutorial to setup my project : https://learnopengl.com/Getting-started/Creating-a-window

How do you setup OpenGL?
Not sure what you're asking, what is your end goal? If you opt for glfw look at the glfw docs: https://www.glfw.org/documentation.html and/or https://github.com/Dav1dde/glad/blob/glad2/example/c/gl_glfw.c for GLAD

Modern OpenGL loading library solution
Just link to GLAD if you're going to link to it! https://github.com/Dav1dde/glad
- When I compile my program, it has a problem with my include statement for the GLFW header file.

I (Putnam) put an up-to-date version of the graphics portion of Dwarf Fortress on Github, including the upcoming SDL2 version on a branch
glew is a GL extension/loading library, OP didn't write glew, personally I use GLAD (https://glad.dav1d.de/) in my projects, which is pretty much the same thing but auto-generated for you based on your project requirements.
-
including opengl header file but can't use its functions
In general nobody really uses the gl headers because they are super outdated and, i believe, only use Microsoft's software renderer for OpenGL. You should use a OpenGL function loader like GLAD instead.
-
Is setting up C+OpenGL with VSC really that hard?
Just use a library like glad which loads everything at runtime under the hood (even system OpenGL runtime, no need to link anything). For a quick start, there is a website to generate headers and a single glad.c to put in your project: https://glad.dav1d.de/

Making Small Games, Which Is Fun in Itself
I want to begin game development as a hobby, but I'm unsure where to start. I did follow through https://learnopengl.com/ a few years ago, and while it was a very interesting experience, I imagine I would need to use an existing engine to be productive.
Do you recommend any books and tutorials aimed at experienced programmers with 0 knowledge of game development/design?

Where do I start to learn C++ for a game development
If u want to make 3D game, you'll probably want to learn some 3D shader graphic stuff. OpenGL is a good start. https://learnopengl.com

Ask HN: Learn Graphics Programming, Recommendations?
LearnOpenGl.com
Possibly a smidge outdated.
Goes from blank window to rendering 3d meshes with advanced lighting techniques (HDR, SSAO and more).
Heped me understand shader pipeline, so I recommend it.

Is a bounding volume a mesh? (for visualization)
I'm reading the guest article about frustum culling on learnopengl.com and there's a video demonstrating how it works and for debug purposes they have a bunch of spheres turning red or green which I assume means they're being culled or not so my question is if I wanted to do this do I have to make a mesh for whatever bounding volume shape or is there a specific method for something like this?
