Modern OpenGL & GLSL Shaders: Models, Shaders and imgui 2022
Learn Modern OpenGL from a University Instructor
Description
Welcome to The Complete Modern OpenGL and GLSL Shaders Course.
I am a University instructor that has been teaching OpenGL, game design and C++ for over 5 years. I noticed a lack of quality OpenGL courses that teach the theory and the practical aspects of OpenGL and decided to share my knowledge with the world!
Let me guide you through the fascinating world of OpenGL by teaching you the THEORY and the PRACTICAL aspects of OpenGL. With this course, you walk away with a SOLID foundation of OpenGL, as we will go beyond simply copy-pasting codes without explanation.
If you' have basic OpenGL knowledge , this course is perfect for you, as we cover the fundamentals of OpenGL and GLSL shaders and take you to the intermediate level in OpenGL. By the end of this course, you should be able to code your own textures, set up lighting for your 3D scene and move objects in a 3D environment and have a sounds grasp regarding the internals of OpenGL. Additionally, we will cover the theory behind shaders and learn how to write custom GLSL shader code, covering different components like SDL, GLM & VAO. I will also teach you how to work with extensions in OpenGL, and use GLAD to allow modern OpenGL to be used.
Projections are an important part of OpenGL. We cover different projections, namely 2D and 3D, to give you to ability to start moving about in a 3D environment. Students will also learn about different transformations and views, including a tutorial on GLM and how to link the library to your project. Additionally, you will also learn to code GUIs using the famous imgui library.
