[Media] Visualizing scientific data in rust
Hi rustaceans! I glued this prototype together with vtkio and glium. There are more features that are unsupported than supported at this point, but the code is here if you want to check it out: https://github.com/JeffIrwin/skillet

should i learn glium?
Should i learn glium (https://crates.io/crates/glium)? i have some experience in opengl (C++) and i would like to use the opengl functionality in the Rust ecosystem.

How to abstract OpenGL for future use?
I can recommend https://github.com/glium/glium as a good, safe abstraction. There was a time when I wanted to learn shaders and write complex pipelines with several stages, this library allowed me to learn about the important objects and their responsibilities without having to program the very verbose chunks of code to initialize. I learned the following:

Where to find resources to learn OpenGL with Rust ?
Glium is a Rust-y OpenGL wrapper, and its repository contains a discussion that should give you an idea whether this is what you want to use, as well as some tutorial.

Drew a torus in the browser using Rust + WASM
If you don't know C++, don't let that deter you because if you can read Rust, you can read the C++ the author writes in the book. To interact with OpenGL I used glium; translating the C++ code to Rust/glium can be tricky though. The Rust equivalent to the linear algebra library the author uses (GLM) is nalgebra_glm.

How to render text with rust?
Glium and ash provide low level access to different common graphics api's. I'm sure there's a good directx-11/12 bindings as well but I'm unfamiliar with what people use.

Issues with glium
I was following the glium tutorials and I thought that I could play around with the code and move most of the logic over into a struct similar to what is done in this wgpu tutorial. However when I try to do that I get an issue saying that a move occurred because my struct didn't implement the copy trait, although neither did the tutorial on wgpu, so I am a bit confused as to why it works in the wgpu code and not in my code.

I want to change my point of view by key input in glium.
A good place to start learning how it all works are glium tutorials which you can find on their Github: https://github.com/glium/glium

What do I need for a board game?
Something like Kiss3D might be more favorable for you. I personally don't have a lot of experience with it, but it's simple to use, and gets the job done without extra work.
