## Introduction
GLFW is a free, Open Source, portable library for OpenGL and OpenGL ES
application development. It provides a simple, platform-independent API for
creating windows and contexts, reading input, handling events, etc.

request, please file it in the
[issue tracker](https://github.com/glfw/glfw/issues) on GitHub.
Finally, if you're interested in helping out with the development of GLFW or
2013-06-24 12:28:42 +00:00
porting it to your favorite platform, we have an occasionally active
[developer's mailing list](https://lists.stacken.kth.se/mailman/listinfo/glfw-dev),
or you could join us on `#glfw`.
