How can I use OpenGL in C++ for graphics programming?

To use OpenGL in C++, you need to set up a development environment with libraries like GLFW and GLEW. Would you like a step-by-step guide?

Yes, please provide the steps to set it up.

First, install GLFW and GLEW. Then, create a new C++ project and link these libraries. Next, initialize OpenGL context and create a window.

What about rendering a simple triangle?

To render a triangle, you'll need to define its vertices, create a vertex buffer, and write a simple vertex and fragment shader.

Can you show me a code example for that?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

// Vertex data for a triangle
float vertices[] = {
    -0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f,
     0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f,
     0.0f,  0.5f, 0.0f
};
// Setup code for OpenGL goes here...
