## What it is
A repository containing all the source code for Victor Gordan's YouTube OpenGL tutorial playlist, written in C++ with OpenGL 3. It includes per-lesson directories, exercises, an ImGui tutorial, and shared resources like textures and models.

## Use cases
- learn OpenGL from scratch with video lessons
- get source code for an OpenGL tutorial series
- practice graphics programming exercises
- learn shaders, textures, and camera setup in OpenGL
- integrate ImGui into an OpenGL project
- build a 3D scene with models and lighting in OpenGL

## When to choose
- you are following the accompanying YouTube playlist and want matching code
- you want a hands-on, example-driven introduction to modern OpenGL 3
- you learn best by modifying working sample projects

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready OpenGL engine or framework
- you want a standalone library to embed in your project
- you need tutorials for Vulkan, DirectX, or WebGL
- you require a maintained, licensed codebase for commercial use (no license is provided)

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: stable
- function: graphics, developer-tools
- domain: graphics, tutorials
- platform: cpp, cross-platform
- tags: opengl, video-tutorials, imgui, shaders, 3d-graphics, game-development
