This is an educational endeavor into learning a bit more about OpenGL and compute shaders using C++20. Some goals, which will absolutely change as I experiement and mess around with it all:
- Classes/wrappers for defining compute shaders
- I want to be able to create a shader object and interface with that object for compiling, loading data, creating buffers, reading from buffers, etc.
- Ideally would be able to template types as much as I can
- Unclear how to do this in GLSL yet
- Learn about and integrate shader-slang
- Who knows? I don't know anything about this stuff yet, so I don't know what I don't know yet.
Devcontainer provided; just launch a Codespace or local devcontainer!
This project uses Conan + CMake for dependency management and builds. You will need to install dependencies via Conan and then build via CMake (there are VSCode build tasks for these!):
# install dependencies
conan install . --build=missing
# load preset
cmake --preset conan-release
# build code
cmake --build --preset conan-releaseCheck out examples for some basic usage. Need to script building these...
