Glittering glamour

This is a template for OpenGL projects, forked from glamour which itself is a fork of Glitter with improvements. It has a basic C++ wrapper for some of OpenGL, and a basic app framework based on GLFW.

Unlike glamour, it's OpenGL 4.5 boilerplate.

For any suggestions, please submit an issue :)

Status: WIP

Improvements

• Added Freetype2 for truetype font processing.
• Generated an OpenGL 4.5 function loader using the glad web service instead of the outdated c-branch on the original repo.
• All submodules have been pointed toward their latest stable release.
• Output goes to a bin directory at the project root.
• A resources folder has been added that will be copied to the bin folder along with the executable project output as a post build event. This is a good place to store shader source files, art assets, or any other files that will need to be loaded by your program.
• The console window will now be hidden by default for Visual Studio projects.
• The startup project will now be the main executable project by default for Visual Studio projects.
• C++14 is set with CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD in the CMakeLists.txt file. This can be changed to whichever standard your project requires.
• Has an .editorconfig file.
• USE_FOLDERS is now on by default in the CMakeLists.txt so that CMake targets will be placed in their own folder.
• A compilation database is automatically created when you build. This can be used for code completion by editor plugins.
• Removed Assimp, bullet and boxer libs, because currently I don't need them and don't find them to be of utter necessity for a basic boilerplate.
