glium 0.36.0

Elegant and safe OpenGL wrapper. Glium is an intermediate layer between OpenGL and your application. You still need to manually handle the graphics pipeline, but without having to use OpenGL's old and error-prone API. Its objectives: - Be safe to use. Many aspects of OpenGL that can trigger a crash if misused are automatically handled by glium. - Provide an API that enforces good pratices such as RAII or stateless function calls. - Be compatible with all OpenGL versions that support shaders, providing unified API when things diverge. - Avoid all OpenGL errors beforehand. - Produce optimized OpenGL function calls, and allow the user to easily use modern OpenGL techniques.

# Introduction

Hello and welcome to the glium tutorials! This series of tutorials will teach you how to work with OpenGL thanks to the glium library. Glium's API uses the exact same concepts as OpenGL and has been designed to remove the burden of using raw OpenGL function calls, which are often non-portable, tedious and error-prone. Even if for some reason you don't plan on using the glium library in the future, these tutorials can still be useful as they will teach you how OpenGL and graphics programming in general work.

If at any moment you encounter an error, please open an issue. Everything related to the window, fullscreen mode, or events is handled by [glutin](https://github.com/rust-windowing/glutin/issues), while everything related to rendering is handled by [glium](https://github.com/glium/glium/issues).
