OpenGL Colored Triangle

This simple C++ program utilizes GLFW and GLAD to create an OpenGL window and render a colored triangle. The triangle is defined by vertex and fragment shaders, and the program provides a basic structure for setting up OpenGL, compiling shaders, and rendering graphics.

Prerequisites

• GLFW library
• GLAD loader

Building and Running

1. Make sure you have GLFW and GLAD installed.

2. Compile the program using your preferred C++ compiler. For example, using g++:

   g++ -o main main.cpp -lglfw -ldl

3. Run the executable:

   ./main

Controls

• Press ESC to close the window.

Code Overview

• The program initializes GLFW and sets up an OpenGL 3.3 Core Profile window.
• Vertex and fragment shaders define the geometry and color of the triangle.
• Vertex data and buffers are created, and shaders are compiled and linked into a shader program.
• The main rendering loop clears the screen, uses the shader program, and draws the triangle.
• Cleanup is performed at the end of the program.

Feel free to modify and extend this code to experiment with OpenGL graphics programming.
