<p>FreeGLUT started out as a GLUT clone, but now it's something much
better than that. It's a GLUT replacement. Here are the features you
have wanted -- and if you have ideas for more, share them! FreeGLUT is
under continuous development. Currently, work on 3.0 is in full swing.

<div class="textheader">What?</div>
<p>freeglut is a completely OpenSourced alternative to the OpenGL Utility Toolkit (GLUT) library. GLUT was originally written by Mark Kilgard to support the sample programs in the second edition OpenGL 'RedBook'. Since then, GLUT has been used in a wide variety of practical applications because it is simple, widely available and highly portable.</p>
<p>GLUT (and hence freeglut) allows the user to create and manage windows containing OpenGL contexts on a wide range of platforms and also read the mouse, keyboard and joystick functions.</p>
<p>freeglut is released under the X-Consortium license.</p>

<p>FreeGLUT is released under the X-Consortium license.</p>
<div class="textheader">Why?</div>
<p>The original GLUT library seems to have been abandoned with the most recent version (3.7) dating back to August 1998. Its license does not allow anyone to distribute modified library code. This would be OK, if not for the fact that GLUT is getting old and really needs improvement. Also, GLUT's license is incompatible with some software distributions (e.g., XFree86).</p>
<div class="textheader">Who?</div>
<p>freeglut was originally written by Pawel W. Olszta with contributions from Andreas Umbach and Steve Baker. Steve is now the official owner/maintainer of freeglut.</p>

<div class="textheader">When?</div>
<p>Pawel started freeglut development on December 1st, 1999. The project is now virtually a 100% replacement for the original GLUT with only a few departures (such as the abandonment of SGI-specific features such as the Dials&amp;Buttons box and Dynamic Video Resolution) and a shrinking set of bugs.</p>

<p>FreeGLUT 3.0 is in active development, and will feature a port to
Android as well as a host of other enhancements. We are looking for
developers to help out with further work on the Android port.
Furthermore, ports to Cocoa/Carbon on OSX, and maybe even Wayland are
planned, along with some enhancements to the API and implementation. See
