Glium is a safe OpenGL wrapper for the Rust programming language, aiming to combine the low-level control of OpenGL with Rust's safety and concurrency features. It provides an idiomatic Rust API for OpenGL functions, ensuring that graphics programming is both safe and efficient. Glium abstracts many of the unsafe aspects of OpenGL, reducing the likelihood of runtime errors and crashes.

Features

  • Safe abstractions over OpenGL functions​
  • Integration with Rust's ownership and borrowing system​
  • Support for shaders, buffers, and textures​
  • Comprehensive error handling mechanisms​
  • Compatibility with multiple windowing libraries​
  • Extensible through Rust's trait system​
  • Active community and ongoing maintenance​
  • Detailed documentation and examples​
  • Open-source under the Apache-2.0 license​
