Description

GLFW (Graphics Library Framework) is a cross-platform, open-source library designed for creating graphical user interfaces (GUIs) and multi-platform applications. It provides a simple API for creating windows, contexts, and surfaces, receiving input and events, and managing graphics resources. GLFW is written in C and supports Windows, macOS, the X Window System, and the Wayland protocol. It supports OpenGL, Vulkan, and other modern graphics APIs. It also provides multiple mechanisms for user interaction, including mouse and keyboard input, joystick and gamepad support, touch input, and support for multiple monitors. GLFW provides a common interface for different platforms, allowing developers to create applications that can be deployed on multiple operating systems.
