Features and Goals

• Modern CMake Usage
• Modern C++ (C++17)
• Modern OpenGL (4.5+)
• OpenGL Object Binding via RAII
• Automatic location mapping negotiation
• Automatic texture unit assignment
• Easy-to-use Uniform Buffer
• ArrayBuffer setup via GLM types
• Built-in Shader/VAO/Texture loading using static functions
• Proper smart pointer usage
• Automatic resource reloading for debugging
• Lean core library with optional extensions
• Forward declarations to reduce compile time
• Doxygen documentation
