An open-source system for rendering vector graphics in 2D and 3D, OpenGL is a cross-platform and cross-language API. To achieve hardware-accelerated rendering, application developers typically use the API to communicate with graphics the processing unit (GPU). What is OpenGL exactly? In computing, OpenGL stands for Open Graphics Library. OpenGL is an API or standard specification that facilitates communication with graphic hardware (GPU). The OpenGL API provides a graphical representation of something in an application, similar to using the FS module API when accessing files in Node.js. With OpenGL, 2D, and 3D vector graphics can be rendered through hardware acceleration using GPUs, so it is widely used in VR, CAD, games, etc. The Design of the OpenGL Graphics Interface In OpenGL, two-dimensional and three-dimensional graphics are drawn using an abstract API. Even though the API can be implemented entirely in software, it is typically implemented mostly in hardware. APIs cons...
