realms 4.5.5

A powerful and lightweight graphics library for making Rust games
Documentation
//! Does exactly the same as example 3, but also introduces *uniforms*: a way of sending a variable
//! to be used in *every* point in the vertex/fragment shader.
//! In this example, it's used to control a global 'position offset', which is subtracted from each
//! vertex position to act as a 'camera' moving.

// This example assumes you have also read example 3: colorful triangle.
// Many things are not explained here as they were explained in the last
// example. This example builds upon example 3.
// <https://github.com/dylanopen/realms/tree/main/examples/example3_colorful_triangle>

// NOTE: as we are moving the camera, the triangle will be moved opposite to
// what we would expect (e.g. pressing 'left' moves the triangle right).
// This is because we are moving the camera, which direction opposes that of
// the shapes it views.
