This is OpenGL at its finest.

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 (see below), or fork our github repository and implement them! FreeGLUT is under continuous development. Currently, work on 3.0 is in full swing. See here for the list of work that is still to be done.

Free software projects depend on the community around them for their growth. It's by contributions that truly wonderful pieces of open and free software come to be. Contributions can be nearly anything. The point is involvement!

Examples:

• Attack one of the points on our todo list
• Use freeglut in your projects!
• Tell us what you like.
• Tell us what you'd change.
• Report bugs.
• Write documentation.
• Spread the word about the project.
• Join our development mailing list.
• If you changed or added a feature, send us a patch on sourceforge.net, or a pull request on github -- others might benefit from your work!

But simply, become involved! The project is not just software, it's the people that contribute, too.
