@section quick_start Introduction
In this guide you will learn how to write simple OpenGL applications using
GLFW 3. We start by initializing GLFW, then we create a window and read some
user keyboard input.
GLFW 3. It will introduce you to a few of the most commonly used functions, but
there are many others. To see detailed documentation on any GLFW function, just
click on its name.
@section quick_include Including the GLFW header
The first thing you have to do when using GLFW is including the GLFW header.
In the files of your program where you use OpenGL or GLFW, you need to include
the GLFW 3 header file.
@code
#include <GL/glfw3.h>
@endcode
This header defines all the constants, types and function prototypes of the
GLFW API. It also includes the OpenGL header provided by your development
environment and defines all the necessary constants and types for it to work on
that particular platform.
This defines all the constants, types and function prototypes of the GLFW API.
It also includes the OpenGL header, and defines all the constants and types
necessary for it to work on your platform.
For example, under Windows you are normally required to include @c windows.h
before including @c GL/gl.h. This would make your source file tied to Windows
and pollute your code's namespace with the whole Win32 API.
Instead, the GLFW header takes care of this for you, not by including @c
windows.h, but rather by itself duplicating only the necessary parts of it. It
does this only where needed, so if @c windows.h @em is included, the GLFW header
does not try to redefine those symbols.
In other words:
@arg Do @em not include the OpenGL headers yourself, as GLFW does this for you
@arg Do @em not include @c windows.h or other platform-specific headers unless
you plan on using those APIs directly
@arg If you @em do need to include such headers, do it @em before including the
GLFW and it will detect this
Starting with version 3.0, the GLU header @c glu.h is no longer included by
default. If you wish to include it, define @c GLFW_INCLUDE_GLU before the
inclusion of the GLFW header.

functions that require it.
@section quick_capture_error Setting an error callback
Most events are reported through callbacks, whether it's a key being pressed,
a GLFW window being moved, or an error occurring. Callbacks are simply
C functions (or C++ static methods) that are called by GLFW with arguments
describing the event.
In case @ref glfwInit or any other GLFW function fails, an error is reported to
the GLFW error callback. You can receive these reports by setting the error
callback. The callback function itself should match the signature of @ref
GLFWerrorfun. Here is a simple error callback that just prints the error
description to @c stderr.
@code
void error_callback(int error, const char* description)
{
fputs(description, stderr);
}
@endcode
Setting the callback, so GLFW knows to call it, is done with @ref
glfwSetErrorCallback. This is one of the few GLFW functions that may be called
before @ref glfwInit, which lets you be notified of errors during
initialization, so you should set it before you do anything else with GLFW.
@code
glfwSetErrorCallback(error_callback);

combination like Alt+F4, check the @c GLFW_SHOULD_CLOSE attribute.

@section quick_render Rendering with OpenGL
Once you have a current OpenGL context, you can use OpenGL normally. In this
tutorial, a multi-colored rotating triangle will be rendered. The window size,
needed here by @c glViewport and @c glOrtho, is retrieved using @ref
glfwGetWindowSize. However, if you only need it for updating the viewport when
the window size changes, you can set a window size callback using @ref
glfwSetWindowSizeCallback and call @c glViewport from there.
@code
void window_size_callback(GLFWwindow* window, int width, int height)
{
glViewport(0, 0, width, height);
}
@endcode
@section quick_timer Reading the timer
For the triangle to rotate properly, a time source is needed. GLFW provides
@ref glfwGetTime, which returns the number of seconds since @ref glfwInit as
a @c double. The time source used is the most accurate on each platform and
generally has micro- or nanosecond resolution.
@code
double time = glfwGetTime();
@endcode
@section quick_swap_buffers Swapping buffers
GLFW windows always use double-buffering. That means that you have two

@section quick_process_events Processing events
GLFW needs to communicate regularly with the window system in order to receive
events, like the ones controlling the attribute @c GLFW_SHOULD_CLOSE mentioned
above. Event processing must be done regularly and is normally done each frame
before rendering but after buffer swap.
GLFW needs to communicate regularly with the window system both in order to
receive events and to show that it hasn't locked up. Event processing must be
done regularly and is normally done each frame before rendering but after buffer
swap.
There are two ways to process events. @ref glfwPollEvents processes only those
events that have already been received and then returns immediately. This is
the best choice when rendering continually, like most games do.

input, @ref glfwWaitEvents is a better choice. It waits until at least one
event has been received, putting the thread to sleep in the meantime, and then
processes all received events just like @ref glfwPollEvents does. This saves
a great deal of CPU cycles and is useful for, for example, many kinds of editing
tools.
