# cl-glfw3

Bindings for the [GLFW library](http://glfw.org/), version 3.x, for Common Lisp.

These bindings have been enhanced with several conveniences, as described in [cl-glfw3.lisp](./cl-glfw3.lisp).

Direct bindings to all GLFW functions can be found in the system `%glfw` [glfw-bindings.lisp](./glfw-bindings.lisp).

### Installing

cl-glfw3 is Quicklisp installable! Just type:

```lisp
(ql:quickload :cl-glfw3)
```

Running the resulting system requires [GLFW](http://www.glfw.org/) version 3.x and [libffi](http://sourceware.org/libffi/) to be installed on your computer.

#### OSX

 - `brew install glfw libffi`

#### Ubuntu/Debian

 - `sudo apt-get install libglfw3 libffi-dev`

### Examples

Examples can be found in the [examples](./examples) directory.

The examples rely on [cl-opengl](https://github.com/3b/cl-opengl) (which Quicklisp will take care of) and require that OpenGL be installed on your computer.

These can be loaded through Quicklisp with:

```lisp
(ql:quickload :cl-glfw3-examples)

(cl-glfw3-examples:events-example)
(cl-glfw3-examples:basic-window-example)
(cl-glfw3-examples:particles-basic-example)
(cl-glfw3-examples:fragment-shader-example)
```

### Documentation

The best place to find documentation for GLFW3 is [their official site](http://www.glfw.org/docs/3.0/index.html).

### Stability

At the moment these bindings are largely untested, aside from what can be seen in the examples directory. Contributions are most welcome!
