Project Description
GL2DX is a wrapper library that allows you to build your OpenGL app for WinRT. It implements a small subset of the OpenGL API by re-routing them to their DirectX equivalents. This allows you to re-use your existing drawing code on WinRT without having to replace
it with DirectX. This project uses the MIT license, which is a very permissive license, so feel free to use it and extend it and include it in your commercial products.
