Application programmers should subclass from MinGfx::GraphicsApp, which provides callbacks for several styles of rendering and user interfaces. On-screen graphical user interfaces can be created with built-in support for NanoGUI. 2D vector graphics rendering is supported by linking with NanoVG. 3D graphics rendering is supported via MinGfx::Mesh, MinGfx::Shader, MinGfx::Texture2D, and related classes. Additionally, application programmers can do whatever custom 2D or 3D rendering is needed with direct calls to OpenGL. + +The library is maintained by Prof. Daniel Keefe (dfk@umn.edu) and is used for instructional purposes in UMN computer science courses (CSci-4611, CSci-3081W, ...) as well as some research projects. See LICENSE.txt for additional details. |
