Introduction
GLFW is an Open Source, multi-platform library for OpenGL, OpenGL ES and Vulkan
application development. It provides a simple, platform-independent API for
creating windows, contexts and surfaces, reading input, handling events, etc.
GLFW natively supports Windows, macOS and Linux and other Unix-like systems. On
Linux both X11 and Wayland are supported.
GLFW is licensed under the zlib/libpng
license.
You can download the latest stable release
as source or Windows binaries, or fetch the latest branch from GitHub. Each
release starting with 3.0 also has a corresponding annotated
tag with source and binary archives.
