Graphics programmers are often coined the 'wizards' of the game industry. As every magician knows, terms like wizardry and magic are often somewhat exaggerated. Yet, there is a certain charm to graphics programming: the ability to conjure up complete living worlds at our fingertips.


Learn OpenGL will teach you the basics, the intermediate, and tons of advanced knowledge, using modern (core-profile) OpenGL. The aim of this book is to show you all there is to modern OpenGL in an easy-to-understand fashion, with clear examples and step-by-step instructions, while also providing a useful reference for later studies.


After years of continuous work and improvements on the accompanying website learnopengl.com, with the help of thousands of readers, its content has been professionally revised for this physical copy you now find in your hands.

Graphics programming isn't as hard as many people make it out to be... you just need to start.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Easily the very best OpenGL learning material out there!
    Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2020
    Verified Purchase
    I am a professional software developer who was looking to update their knowledge of OpenGL, I tried many books before this one and this is literally the only material that as it takes you through the standard it clearly and concisely explains everything, ensuring that you understand. If you are a proficient C++ programmer this book makes OpenGL child's play. My only gripe with the book is that there is no index, but that is no big deal.

    Huge congrats to the author on excellent material!

    I'm a CSC student who is interested in learning about how graphics engines work. Joey does a fantastic job with explaining the process, reasoning behind certain steps, and much more. Plus, there is an accompanied website with the book where you can access source code for each chapter for free!

    Highly recommend this book to anyone serious about getting into graphics engine development.

    I am coming to OpenGL from a user's perspective: I want to know how to get up and running with it, and start creating graphical applications. This book (and the author's website) are amazing for just that.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Review of the book.
    Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2021
    Verified Purchase
    This is an excellent material on OpenGL programming but it is is missing some important components. Most of the OpenGL authors do not cover basic forms, e.g. points, lines, arrowed lines, etc. They most start creating triangles and rectangles. Up to now I am still battling trying to create an arrowed simple line. May the author of this great book add drawing of simple objects in the next edition.

    Reviewed in France on November 17, 2020
    Verified Purchase
    Rien à dire sur le contenu. La dernière section sur la programmation d'un casse-brique parait parfois un peu hors sujet cependant.
    La qualité d'impression mériterait une révision pour une éventuelle future version car le texte est trop petit, le code source pas très lisible car sur fond noir. Les images sont aussi pas toujours très lisibles.

    Amazon, a company that started out delivering books, has decided to deliver this $80 CAD book in a bag. The spine is broken, the pages are warped, and the corners are folded.

    Packaging aside, the code examples being white/gray on black makes them pretty hard to read. The content is good, other than that.
