I have spent two whole work days trying to install GLEW

• NGL

  13 87 8.1 C++

  The NCCA Graphics Library

  

If you follow the instructions I give to my students here https://github.com/NCCA/NGL/blob/main/Windows.md up to the vcpkg install. You can then install GLEW via vcpkg and try something like this https://github.com/NCCA/ModernGL/tree/master for your OpenGL demos.

• PowerShell

  397 43,290 9.6 C#

  PowerShell for every system!

Consider GLFW3 for windowing and GLAD for function loading. I've used this combination myself successfully. Granted, that is "two things" you need, but OTOH it'll work well.
