## What it is
A curated list of OpenGL libraries, debuggers, tutorials, books, articles, and other resources. It serves as a reference index for developers learning or working with OpenGL and computer graphics.

## Use cases
- find opengl libraries for my project
- learn opengl from scratch
- best opengl tutorials and books
- glsl shader editor recommendations
- opengl debugging tools
- understand the graphics pipeline
- resources for game graphics programming

## When to choose
- you want a curated starting point for OpenGL learning resources
- you need to discover OpenGL-related libraries, debuggers, or GLSL editors
- you are teaching or self-studying computer graphics

## When to avoid
- you need an actual OpenGL implementation or driver
- you want a tutorial or library itself rather than links to resources
- you work with Vulkan, DirectX, or Metal instead of OpenGL

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: graphics, documentation, developer-tools
- domain: graphics, tutorials, awesome-lists
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: opengl, glsl, curated-list, computer-graphics, graphics-pipeline, shaders, game-development
