  • LearnOpenGL

    Code repository of all OpenGL chapters from the book and its accompanying website https://learnopengl.com

  • I tried using learnopengl.com to learn OpenGL with C++ and I couldn't get past the "Hello Triangle" tutorial, it was so confusing. I could tell what everything was supposed to do if I looked in it in isolation, but I can't remember that at all and couldn't figure out how to put it all together. It was just so much. It felt like I was just copy-pasting code without learning how it all fits together. I thought maybe the tutorial didn't explain it in-depth enough but that doesn't seem likely.

  • SFML

    Simple and Fast Multimedia Library

  • Try learning something like https://www.sfml-dev.org/ and then if its not good enough for you, write your own. This will at least give you the knowledge to see how its done and why its done that way. Sometimes seeing how someone else implemented what you want to do makes things click.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
