# LearnOpenGL in Python

This repository is a Python port of the C++ code from the highly regarded [LearnOpenGL](https://learnopengl.com) tutorial series by Joey de Vries.

The primary purpose of this repository is to provide a Python-based alternative for developers who are following the LearnOpenGL tutorials.

At the moment is not 100% complete but I plan to do so in some time.

## Structure

Each folder in this repository corresponds to a specific section in the LearnOpenGL tutorials. This structure allows you to easily find the Python code relevant to the chapter you are studying.

## Getting Started

To run the examples in this repository, you will need to have Python and the required libraries installed.

### Prerequisites

* Python 3.12.x
* moderngl
* pygame
* PyGLM
* Pillow (alternative for texture loading)


## References

The following are a collection of useful links and resources for learning computer graphics and OpenGL.

### ModernGL

For those looking for a higher-level Python wrapper over OpenGL, **ModernGL** is an excellent library that simplifies many of the verbose commands associated with PyOpenGL. It is designed to be easier to learn while still providing high performance.

### Pygame

At its core, Pygame is a Python wrapper for the Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) library. SDL is a low-level, cross-platform development library written in C that provides access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, and graphics hardware.<br>
Pygame is used to handle screen creation, OpenGL scren binding, input and audio
