Where to get started on making a custom game engine?

• LearnOpenGL

Forget the idea to create a custom game engine. Start by learning how to create a game instead and the engine will get a shape at some point. You should give learnopengl a shot. It will teach you some fundamentals for getting a basic window with a triangle up 'n running and in time you'll connect the dots and learn how to render sprites, fonts, models and what not.
