The tech behind EvoLife.
I'm using SFML to develop my game engine (Though I might switch to olcPixelGameEngine at some point in the future).

Best C++ Game Framework
If you want something simple (single file to drop in a project) with a nice easy C++ API for 2D graphics there is OneLoneCoder's Pixel Game Engine.

How to display array of rgb values in window??
The PixelGameEngine from OneLoneCoder would probably fit here.

How do I move my mouse and click in c++?
As always, I recommend https://github.com/OneLoneCoder/olcPixelGameEngine :) It's just one header, so you just include it in your project and you're good to go.

I'm struggling
And if you want to try making a small game with rudamentary graphics, but not go full OpenGL/DirectX, take a look at OLC pixel game engine. It's a one header graphics library that will allow you to draw simple shapes, text, etc. perfect for prototyping or making very simple games. Eventually you'll want to try making Pong to take your training to the next level, so this will be perfect for that.

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?

Is there space in this field for extreme cases like mine ?
- Game development - Unity3D project based learning in C#: https://learn.unity.com/ - Graphics - There was another user on r/GraphicsProgramming the other day (who teaches Computer Graphics at his university) that linked their lecture series for the entry year of their course here: https://tamats.com/learn/realtime-graphics/ - Project based learning: https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/wiki - Rendering API tutorials: https://vulkan-tutorial.com/, https://learnopengl.com/

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Possibly a smidge outdated.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?
