The companion code repository for the Packt book '3D Graphics Rendering Cookbook', containing C++ examples of modern rendering algorithms using OpenGL and Vulkan. It covers topics like physically based rendering, AZDO techniques, graphics debugging/profiling, and Vulkan application development.

Use cases

• learn modern 3D rendering algorithms with OpenGL and Vulkan
• implement a physically based rendering pipeline from scratch
• improve performance of legacy OpenGL applications
• learn how to develop Vulkan applications in C++
• integrate a physics library with a rendering engine
• study real-time rendering engine content management techniques

When to choose

• you are a C++ developer learning OpenGL or Vulkan rendering techniques
• you want hands-on example code accompanying a structured graphics book
• you need reference implementations of PBR, AZDO, or graphics profiling techniques

When to avoid

• you need a production-ready rendering engine or framework
• you want a maintained library with API stability rather than educational code
• you work outside C++ or on platforms other than Windows/Linux
