  • the best lib that does its job, very handy and easy to use; a must for every OpenGL developer.
  • Thanks for the lib!
  • Come one only 11 plus on google plus? a project such this one deserve much more credits :) basically any opensource cross-platform project that needs 3D needs also GLEW. GLEW+SFML or GLEW+SDL = big win :)
