Projects

Each project has README.md file, here is a brief description about them:

• LabDemos application: shows a list of demos, you can choose to run a demo by entering its number.
• LabDemos.Exercises application: similar to LabDemos, but the implementation is left to you as exercise 😄,
  • This will help you getting handy with the tech.
• OpenGL.SharedModule Library:
  1. Contains shared code .c and .cpp files (ex. glad.c, stb_image.cpp, imgui*.cpp, etc...)
  2. Also, I've put global dependencies' artifacts (i.e. .h, .dll, .lib) in this library
  3. This library does depends on nothing, but all other apps (ex. LabDemos, LabDemos.Exercises and Homework.*) depends on it, except for:
• LegacyDemo.Yuck application: A showcase of legacy opengl app
  • Dependencies of this application are bundled within it, Not within OpenGL.SharedModule. So this project does not depend on any other project
  • It shows that modern/legacy projects can be found in the same solution!
• Homework.*: details for each homework can be found in README.md file in homework's root folder
  • Homerowk(s) will be announced in Discussions
  • To watch all activities on this repo, select "All Activity" in Watch dropdown in the repo.
  • Don't create pull requests for your solutions to exercises and homeworks
  • Moreover, Don't fork this repo and push your code to your public repo!
  • For Homeworks: User should be able to run the application by double-clicking on .exe
• UnitTests: Unit Tests everywhere¹ 💯

NOTEs:

• To make changes to the code (ex. for do exercises and homeworks), I recommend you create new local branchand keep the master branch clean (to avoid code conflicts when pulling changes from remote).
• Modules (.ixx) used in LabDemos*, Headers (.h) used in Homework.* Projects
  • Modules let you free to rename parent folders, move .ixx file to another folder

Footnotes

1. In general, you should create unit test project(s) wherever you work on a [modular] application. ↩
