This lets alternative build environments avoid having to manually keep track of which version of GLFW is being built.

GLFW
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.
Version 3.0.4 is not yet described. As this is a patch release, there are no API changes.
If you are new to GLFW, you may find the introductory tutorial for GLFW 3 useful. If you have used GLFW 2 in the past, there is a transition guide for moving to the GLFW 3 API.
Compiling GLFW
See the Compiling GLFW guide in the GLFW documentation.
