Question

What does GLFW acronym stand for? http://www.glfw.org/ is the main website, but I cannot find any clue there. Evenhere on SO it has a tag but in the description the acronym is not explained.

Was it helpful?

Solution

Apparently, it used to stand for OpenGL FrameWork--link. I think I prefer some of the alternative interpretations given on the wiki, though.

OTHER TIPS

Wikipedia states "Graphics Library Framework". This makes sense, as GLFW is no longer an OpenGL focuses library, but also supports Vulkan.
