OpenGL Playground

A personal playground for experimenting with OpenGL and real-time graphics techniques. Current features include:

• PhysX-powered basic cube and sphere collision physics
• 3D model loading using Assimp
• Shadow mapping implementation
• Modern OpenGL rendering pipeline
• Immediate-mode UI with ImGui

🔧 Building the Project with CMake and vcpkg

This project uses CMake for building and vcpkg for dependency management.

✅ Dependencies (managed by vcpkg)

The following libraries are used:

• GLFW
• GLM
• GLAD
• ImGui (with glfw-binding, opengl3-binding, and docking-experimental)
• PhysX SDK
• Assimp
• nlohmann/json

⚙️ Building with CMake

Create a build directory and run CMake:

mkdir build
cd build

cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=path/to/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake
cmake --build .

For Visual Studio users:

cmake .. -A x64 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=path/to/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake
